They feature a built-in high-resolution digital-to-analog converter (DAC) - allowing you to access and reproduce a wide range of music at the highest quality possible. The amplifier section of a Peachtree integrated is engineered to real-world standards, allowing your speakers - when driven by Peachtree power - to perform to their maximum potential. Some amplifiers look good on paper, designed to a specification. Peachtree Audio amplifiers drive real speakers, taking in stride the often difficult demands placed on an amplifier by the speaker designer. The preamplifier, whether a separate component or as part of an all-in-one integrated amplifier, plays a critical role in the sound chain. The musical signal goes through the preamp stage: it is vital. At Peachtree we take as much care in the design of the preamp stage of our integrated amps as of our stand-alone preamplifier\/DACs. The preamplifier also serves as the control center for your Hi-Fi system. A Peachtree integrated amplifier allows you to control your system easily and intuitively, without unnecessary complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Peachtree Audio we urge you to \"Enjoy the Music\".

The Carina GaN provides a musical path to your speakers that is remarkably short, direct and pure. Want to hear all of the intricate details in your music that have always been there but you couldn't quite hear them before? That is exactly what the Carina GaN does that other amplifiers fall short of. The Carina GaN accepts five digital audio inputs including USB-C and Bluetooth v5 plus a versatile analog audio input that is switchable between Moving Agent (MM) phono, AUX and Home Theater Bypass. The Carina GaN will drive virtually any speaker with remarkable clarity, authority and finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the Carina GaN special?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst and foremost is the GaN amplifier module. It has several inherent advantages in a high power application like a power amplifier. A GaN-FET power stage provides a precise high-power reproduction of the Class-D PWM signal with extremely high linearity and relatively low distortion compare to MOS-FET. This linearity eliminates the need for ANY feedback, ultimately allowing for exceptionally clean and transparent midrange and high frequencies along with strong and remarkably well controlled low frequencies. GaN-FETs track the complex audio waveforms so much more accurately than MOS-FETs resulting in significantly more transparent and natural sound. The difference is something even a casual listener can hear and appreciate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Carina GaN is designed so that it does NOT require a traditional digital-to-analog-converter (DAC) for its digital sources. The GaN-FET power stages functions as a “power DAC” creating the analog waveform that drives the speakers WITHOUT the need for a separate DAC! Just a super short and direct path from your music sources to your speakers. Carina GaN also use a separate regulated power supply for the amplifier module making it more like a separate preamplifier and power amplifier that share the same chassis. And for any analog sources the Carina GaN utilizes a high-performance AKM solution to achieve a remarkably accurate signal for the GaN-FET power module to operate optimally with these sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Carina X\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Carina X is a 300 watt-per-channel integrated amplifier incorporating the NCore X technology recently introduced by Hypex. The X technology takes traditional class-D power amplifier design to the highest level. Unlike the Carina GaN, the power amplifier in the Carina X uses a MOS-FET power stage with high amount of global negative feedback to achieve remarkable measured performance and sonic transparency. It is the only class-D power amplifier, that we have heard to date, that achieves most of the same sonic attributes we experience when listening to the Carina GaN. Similar to the Carina GaN, the Carina X utilizes a separate power supply for the amplifier modules making it more like a separate preamplifier and power amplifier that share the same chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Carina 300 \u0026amp; Carina 150\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth of these units incorporate the NCore power amplifier technology from Hypex. The Carina 300 and Carina 150 provide exceptional performance at their respective price points and exceed the transparency and sound quality of ALL of our previous designs. They are only outmatched by our Carina X and Carina GaN in terms of ultimate sonic transparency and sound quality. The Carina 300 is a great match for less sensitive speakers, larger rooms or for listeners who simply enjoy their music at higher levels. And given just how good Carina sounds at those higher levels, we get it! The Carina 150 is designed for higher sensitivity speakers (90dB+), smaller rooms of for listeners who enjoy their music at more moderate levels but still expect an exceptional listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we made Carina\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarina was designed as a high-performance yet flexible platform that would provide the very best results from digital and analog source devices and interface with any type of power amplifier we chose. Every portion of the platform is meticulously designed with an eye for sonic purity, simplicity and sound quality. The result was a new price\/performance benchmark for integrated amplifiers. Add in the more intuitive user interface of the OLED display and timeless Peachtree Audio cosmetic design - Carina could, very well, be the last integrated amplifier you will ever need or want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 1.5pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarina highlights\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in;

And for any analog sources the Carina GaN utilizes a high-performance AKM solution to achieve a remarkably accurate signal for the GaN-FET power module to operate optimally with these sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Carina X\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Carina X is a 300 watt-per-channel integrated amplifier incorporating the NCore X technology recently introduced by Hypex. The X technology takes traditional class-D power amplifier design to the highest level. Unlike the Carina GaN, the power amplifier in the Carina X uses a MOS-FET power stage with high amount of global negative feedback to achieve remarkable measured performance and sonic transparency. It is the only class-D power amplifier, that we have heard to date, that achieves most of the same sonic attributes we experience when listening to the Carina GaN. Similar to the Carina GaN, the Carina X utilizes a separate power supply for the amplifier modules making it more like a separate preamplifier and power amplifier that share the same chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Carina 300 \u0026amp; Carina 150\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth of these units incorporate the NCore power amplifier technology from Hypex. The Carina 300 and Carina 150 provide exceptional performance at their respective price points and exceed the transparency and sound quality of ALL of our previous designs. They are only outmatched by our Carina X and Carina GaN in terms of ultimate sonic transparency and sound quality. The Carina 300 is a great match for less sensitive speakers, larger rooms or for listeners who simply enjoy their music at higher levels. And given just how good Carina sounds at those higher levels, we get it! The Carina 150 is designed for higher sensitivity speakers (90dB+), smaller rooms of for listeners who enjoy their music at more moderate levels but still expect an exceptional listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we made Carina\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarina was designed as a high-performance yet flexible platform that would provide the very best results from digital and analog source devices and interface with any type of power amplifier we chose. Every portion of the platform is meticulously designed with an eye for sonic purity, simplicity and sound quality. The result was a new price\/performance benchmark for integrated amplifiers. Add in the more intuitive user interface of the OLED display and timeless Peachtree Audio cosmetic design - Carina could, very well, be the last integrated amplifier you will ever need or want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 1.5pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarina highlights\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in;

The Carina GaN provides a musical path to your speakers that is remarkably short, direct and pure. Want to hear all of the intricate details in your music that have always been there but you couldn't quite hear them before? That is exactly what the Carina GaN does that other amplifiers fall short of. The Carina GaN accepts five digital audio inputs including USB-C and Bluetooth v5 plus a versatile analog audio input that is switchable between Moving Agent (MM) phono, AUX and Home Theater Bypass. The Carina GaN will drive virtually any speaker with remarkable clarity, authority and finesse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the Carina GaN special?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst and foremost is the GaN amplifier module. It has several inherent advantages in a high power application like a power amplifier. A GaN-FET power stage provides a precise high-power reproduction of the Class-D PWM signal with extremely high linearity and relatively low distortion compare to MOS-FET. This linearity eliminates the need for ANY feedback, ultimately allowing for exceptionally clean and transparent midrange and high frequencies along with strong and remarkably well controlled low frequencies. GaN-FETs track the complex audio waveforms so much more accurately than MOS-FETs resulting in significantly more transparent and natural sound. The difference is something even a casual listener can hear and appreciate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Carina GaN is designed so that it does NOT require a traditional digital-to-analog-converter (DAC) for its digital sources. The GaN-FET power stages functions as a “power DAC” creating the analog waveform that drives the speakers WITHOUT the need for a separate DAC! Just a super short and direct path from your music sources to your speakers. Carina GaN also use a separate regulated power supply for the amplifier module making it more like a separate preamplifier and power amplifier that share the same chassis. And for any analog sources the Carina GaN utilizes a high-performance AKM solution to achieve a remarkably accurate signal for the GaN-FET power module to operate optimally with these sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Carina X\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Carina X is a 300 watt-per-channel integrated amplifier incorporating the NCore X technology recently introduced by Hypex. The X technology takes traditional class-D power amplifier design to the highest level. Unlike the Carina GaN, the power amplifier in the Carina X uses a MOS-FET power stage with high amount of global negative feedback to achieve remarkable measured performance and sonic transparency. It is the only class-D power amplifier, that we have heard to date, that achieves most of the same sonic attributes we experience when listening to the Carina GaN. Similar to the Carina GaN, the Carina X utilizes a separate power supply for the amplifier modules making it more like a separate preamplifier and power amplifier that share the same chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Carina 300 \u0026amp; Carina 150\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth of these units incorporate the NCore power amplifier technology from Hypex. The Carina 300 and Carina 150 provide exceptional performance at their respective price points and exceed the transparency and sound quality of ALL of our previous designs. They are only outmatched by our Carina X and Carina GaN in terms of ultimate sonic transparency and sound quality. The Carina 300 is a great match for less sensitive speakers, larger rooms or for listeners who simply enjoy their music at higher levels. And given just how good Carina sounds at those higher levels, we get it! The Carina 150 is designed for higher sensitivity speakers (90dB+), smaller rooms of for listeners who enjoy their music at more moderate levels but still expect an exceptional listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we made Carina\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarina was designed as a high-performance yet flexible platform that would provide the very best results from digital and analog source devices and interface with any type of power amplifier we chose. Every portion of the platform is meticulously designed with an eye for sonic purity, simplicity and sound quality. The result was a new price\/performance benchmark for integrated amplifiers. Add in the more intuitive user interface of the OLED display and timeless Peachtree Audio cosmetic design - Carina could, very well, be the last integrated amplifier you will ever need or want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in 0in 1.5pt 0in;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarina highlights\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0in;
