Powerful Amplification
Peachtree amplifiers are rated "all channels driven" from 20Hz to 20kHz (full bandwidth of human hearing) to provide real world power ratings. Featuring an amplifier that delivers up to 95 watts per channel (4Ω), the nova65SE is the perfect partner for efficient speakers, near-field desktop systems and for listeners that value quality over quantity of sound.
If your listening habits or speakers require more power to sound their best, check out the even more powerful nova125SE and nova220SE.

Optional BT1 aptX® Bluetooth Music Receiver

What makes the nova65SE better than the decco65?
-
Since the launch of the original nova125 and decco65 our engineering team has been working to take the sound quality of both models to the next level. After more than a year of listening and measuring, we are proud to offer the new nova65SE and nova125SE. These models join the outstanding nova220SE to complete our best line of integrated amps ever.

The novaSE amps are classic Peachtree on the outside but with upgraded technology on the inside - creating the best sounding novas ever. By "trickling down" the Class-A circuitry originally developed for the much more expensive Grand Pre X-1 and Grand Integrated X-1, we were able to improve dynamics and clarity in a big way. So now you'll have more "I've never heard that before" moments with your favorite music.

The novaSE discrete Class-A preamp output stage combines the musicality of Class-A design with the muscle of Class-D amplification. Signal paths in the novaSE have been made shorter to lower noise and improve transients. The DAC's power supply (often the difference between a great DAC and a merely good one) has been upgraded with new low-ESR capacitors. The sound is smoother and has improved focus, imaging, and bass definition. Dynamics and micro-detail are greatly improved so you can hear more of what's embedded in the recording.

The new novaSE integrated amplifiers simply sound great and perform far beyond their down-to-earth prices. Listening to a novaSE will stun anyone considering investing thousands more in electronics!
