Thank you for your purchase of Trends TA-10 Class-T stereo amplifier.
Trends Audio introduces the mini-size Class-T stereo amplifier TA-10 providing up to
2x15W output with the bundled AC power supply unit. Thanks to the Tripath's
proprietary Class-T Digital Power Processing (TM) technology and our special
techniques in circuit design and component selection, TA-10 achieves the sound
quality of high-end HiFi but in a very affordable price.
TA-10 performs very like Class-AB amplifiers with high fidelity and warm sound. Yet,
its power efficiency and physical size is just like Class-D amplifiers. Even it's maximum
output power is only 2x15W, TA-10 is actually powerful to push even the floor-stand
speakers with sufficient and good control of bass sound. It has no problem for normal
home use purpose.

•
applied the proprietary T-amp technology for audiophile quality sound, high
power efficiency (90%) and less heat generation
•
compact design (mini-size & light weight), easy portable and setup
•
provide up to 2x15W output
•
an AC adaptor is bundled for continuous power supply.
•
separated amplifier & AC adaptor design to minimize mutual interference and
flexible to apply other power sources, e.g. lead-acid battery.
•
standard audio and speaker sockets compatible with most audiophile quality
cables.
•
the DC bias between speaker terminals can be offset (close to ±0mV) by
adjusting the potentiometers (factory pre-set). It suppresses the "pop" sound
when power on/off and also increase the sound purity.
•
option to work as a pure power amp by simply reset jumpers to by-pass the
volume controlling circuit.
•
built-in over-current protection.
•
built-in over-temperature protection
•
audiophile-graded parts and components
•
air-core inductor used instead of magnetic-core for better sound
•
the stylish & specially-plated aluminium case provides not only good-looking,
and also provides outstanding shielding capability.
