Best Hi-Fi Amplifier £600-£1200

The 7000A (amp) would be ideal for anyone looking for a quality all-rounder to play a variety of musical styles, as well as providing the added bonus of implementing it as a core part of your audio-visual system.

Audiolab 7000A Amp and 7000CDT CD Transport

Audiolab seems to flourish and continues to capitalise on its heritage with very solid products. The star of the mid-range 7000 series is undoubtedly the integrated amplifier 7000A, which combines clean design with good features and, most importantly, a sound that belongs to a higher class than its price range would suggest. It offers distinguished control, solid purity, fine informativeness, and overall civility that can be enjoyed across genres. This is how “normal hi-fi” should function and sound. Audiolab’s 7000 series sets a good standard for what affordable hi-fi should look like (and it doesn’t always look that way). The amplifier, in particular, deserves full attention in this category.

“… I want to say that all of these three integrated amplifiers, purely as integrated amplifiers massively exceeded my expectations… you can feel confident that they’re going to be pushing really pushing good sound for the price points!” 9000A impressed me the most for its technical excellence for the actual sound quality that it delivered and how far it took me in terms of music quality and delivery. So the 9000A really really impressed me and it would be the one I would buy from this listening test. The 7000A delivers the best performance per pound from these. It’s the kind of amplifier sitting exactly where you would expect them to be for their performance against their price. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjO0VTx0ryU

Andrew Robinson

The new 7000A is always believably authentic and truthful. It is wholly natural, comfortable to listen to, and therefore easy to forget ­ you just hear the music. Yet it’s also capable of snappy attack and crisp dynamics too. This company has always made quality amplifiers that do everything that needs to be done without getting into trouble. That neatly sums up this new design, which is unobtrusively competent and always in control. It offers great value for money, giving those on a restricted budget a large taste of Audiolab’s flagship model for much less money. https://www.stereonet.com/uk/reviews /audiolab-7000a-integrated-amplifier-review
It’s 7000A’s breadth and depth of abilities that were likely to have you admiring it long after the novelty of a new toy has gone. The Audiolab 7000A gets very highly recommended by this channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTt8UwKWTvE
The 7000A arrives on the market with one of the most thorough and comprehensive feature sets on the market and balances this with truly outstanding performance. It’s not the best Audiolab amp but it is the best value. The matching CDT offers a genuinely pleasurable user experience that will work superbly in a variety of setups. https://www.avforums.com/reviews /audiolab-7000a-amplifier-and-7000cdt-cd-transport-review. 20791/
‘What impressed me about audiolab, specifically the 7000A here, is just how much more powerful it sounds and feels than the specs would lead you to believe” “For me Audiolab’s new 7000A integrated amp sounds brilliant across all genres of music and now movies, and it just, it just works! I mean, what more do you really need?!’ https://youtu.be/dazsHJLygps

The 9000A is the most powerful and versatile audio amplifier ever built by Audiolab. It has a futuristic design and powerful electronics that are perfectly tailored to audiophile needs. We not only get a variety of useful application features, but also a wide range of options for the amplifier’s circuitry. It’s a digital beast with an analog vibe.

Audiolab’s 9000A showcases a crowd-pleasing sound quality, well-balanced across the range as it segues seamlessly between energetic and contemplative when needed. The solid specification is essentially matched by its performance, and that’s not damning with faint praise. While you might expect a mid/entry-level integrated to be `jack of all trades, master of none’, the 9000A is a clear cut above, as evidenced by its low-end extension, articulate midrange and considerable power. And when coupled with the matching transport, CDs are afforded the same clean, musical treatment. http://www.audiolab.co.uk /wp-content/uploads/2023/07/ HFN-Aug-Audiolab-9000CDT_9000A_Reprint.pdf
Audiolab has taken everything it does, refined it and created an amplifier that manages to be effortlessly brilliant without losing its emotional edge. The result is an unquestionable Best Buy. https://www.avforums.com/reviews /audiolab-9000a-integrated-amp-review.20711/
Across all sources, Audiolab’s new 9000A proved a highly capable performer that unlocks pretty much any type of music and lets the listener in. Indeed I would say that so far it’s the company’s best ever integrated amplifier by a good way ­ and thus represents great value for money. https://www.stereonet.com/uk/reviews/audiolab-9000a-integrated-amplifier- review

“Cost No Object Category Nomincations” as “Easily a Standout Product” from 2023

The sound of the 9000A Integrated Amplifier is rich, refined, and effortless. It reminds me of walking into show room where a very expensive system is playing. You can hear the quality.
audiolab has a winner here. This is a top quality amplifier…That is, the 9000A is sonically impressive and it captivates. It never forces music onto your ears. It doesn’t tell you what to hear. It never dominates the rest of your HiFi. Instead, the 9000A sets out to charm and delight. And it does just that. https://theaudiophileman.com/9000a-amplifier-from-audiolab/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-qd0KyFZps

There are a lot of CD players and transports that you could buy for less money than the 9000CDT, but they won’t sound like this! Is it the heavy frame, the shielding, the power sup- ply, the jitter management, the buffer? Probably all of them together. This is a seriously good CD transport…
If you’re looking for a new CD player, listen to the 9000CDT first. If you’re looking to upgrade from your 6000CDT, listen to the 9000CDT first. If you are building a new HiFi system and you value the little silver disc, then listen to the 9000CDT first.

Stuff Magazine (UK)

…the Omnia sounds clean, crisp and smooth in the main, with the sonic positives of sounding very open and three-dimensional for its sound stage, which is nice! … I also enjoy the balance the OMNIA strikes between its leading-edge clarity and smoothness. There is the right amount of both with very good timing…There is also consistency in sound quality between CDs, streaming from Qobuz and listening to Vinyl… The phone stage really impressed me actually… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blY271Jq50M
All-in-one Hi-Fi products can be sort of swiss army knife affairs and the Omnia is certainly that! …just about any important output you can think of is stuffed into the single chassis which means that it’s jam-packed full of features and value for money …if you’re looking for a good quality sonic response, the Audiolab gives you all of those things and more …I found the Omnia very easy to use indeed whether you’re using the front fascia or the Play-Fi app, I had no issue. This excellent review is eloquently summarised for his subscribers by saying ‘for the price, the Omnia is a bargain!’; thus rounding up to award a ‘GROOVY’ on the emphatic audiolab Omnia! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-9BrfSnnHI
[Omnia] is an exceptionally comprehensive music system, whether you want the ‘plug and play’ appeal of simply connecting it to a pair of speakers as a complete music system, or to upgrade an existing set-up by adding streaming capability… High-quality output stage and generous power supply come into their own in the [Omnia]’s ability to drive hard for large scale orchestral works… while still providing excellent levels of detail and maintaining reserves to handle the dynamics of music… By any standards this is a very well-sorted and considered system, and deserves to do very well indeed.
The digital section gives an excellent demo of Audiolab’s know-how in this area…. There is very little anywhere near the price as well made as this, though …everything feels carefully and extensively thought out… What you get in return is a device that offers a tremendous spec and sounds excellent across all of it… The Omnia’s ‘one box to rule them all, thinking has resulted in one of the best all-in-one systems available under two grand. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AiX7zWNDUK2phPYlZxnMbQOH8Rshng?e=kIHWTH
If we’re picking one word at a time to describe the Audiolab Omnia, where features are concerned we’re going with extensive’. If the Omnia can’t do it for you (at least in stereo hi-fi terms), that’s because it’s not worth doing… no matter where you source your music from ­ a turntable, a streaming service app on a smartphone…you name it ­ the Audiolab Omnia sounds remarkably consistent… in every other respect, the Omnia veers betweengood’ and `great’. It is confident with rhythms and tempos. It can express tiny harmonic variances just as readily as big dynamic shifts… it creates a soundstage that’s properly organised and is easy to understand. It really doesn’t seem to care what sort of music you listen to… if you want a proper taste of a full-on hi-fi set-up without finding the money and the space for a full-on hi-fi set- up, the Audiolab Omnia will get you most of the way there… roper convenience with hardly any compromise, the Audiolab Omnia is a one-box hi-fi solution.

SoundStage! Network (CA)

More functionality than seems feasible, and a full-on serving of Audiolab sound quality at the same time. Performance, meet convenience… It’s built on the DTS Play-Fi platform, which means a stable and sensible control app along with plenty of multi-room possibilities ­ and it’s simple to integrate your preferred music-streaming services and/or internet radio providers…You want a big system without having a big system. The Omnia will support any stereo equipment you care to mention.
https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/audiolab-omnia
Offering a killer combination of versatility and high-fidelity sound quality, it will play your music however you choose to listen to it, with none of the sonic compromise such systems often entail… No other comparably priced just- add-speakers music system can match the Omnia’s versatile range of features and engaging, sophisticated sound quality across all manner of formats, from CD and vinyl to streaming via phones, tablets, computers, NAS drives and more. For music lovers seeking all-encompassing convenience without sonic compromise, it’s the perfect system choice. https://www.whathifi.com/news /audiolab-omnia-the-just-add-speakers-system-with-hi-fi-pedigree
When critically listening, at least to the ears, the Omnia proves to be ever slightly more refined with respect to detail, texture retrieval and spatial separation… Moving on to the Omnia’s CD playback, I found it to be exemplary! …the Omnia proves to be as resolute as other great transports… In fact when listening to the tracks… the internal CD transport provided for a new one presentation that was on par of my number one reference transport… with respect to the ability to grab and hold hang on every note and detail… Comparing to other competitors’ brand, Andrew affirms that ‘I will still lightly to go with the Omnia (over the rivals), because I just prefer the Audiolab sound!’ and ‘if I have to choose, I’m going with the Omnia!’ …Robinson summarises ‘it’s a fantastic, all-in-one integrated amp. This should come as no surprise seen as its built on already solid platform that is the 6000A PLAY and CDT’. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92RmShhPRyU
Jeff Fritz, the well-respected editor-in-chief, interviews the IAG Global Sales & Marketing Director, Jamie O’Callaghan.

Audiolab’s choice of Play-Fi, one of the biggest and best-supported platforms… is a good choice… I’m pleased to say connectivity and all-around functionality has been very good… At this price, this is ridiculous for all this functionality, and it looks great anywhere, it’s proper HiFi. Solid amplification, a good streaming DAC and it does just about anything you can throw at it, from vinyl to Bluetooth and beyond, and it has the Play-Fi front end. https://hifiandmusicsource.com/2022/02/audiolab-6000a-play/
It was maybe one of the hardest decisions to make. Audiolab, man, top notch product! …in our time with it, it has not sounded bad with anything. It has power things where other amplifiers have had trouble! …because it’s the complete package. It never failed to perform, it always just worked… It’s everything, it does it all!

The quality of the digital analogue coversion of [6000A Play] is absolutely fantastic! If you like most people and you’re more than satisfied than CD quality sound, this system will reward you in spades. And ,I don’t know that I’ve heard another system at this price point, that’s with DAC implementation. rips out the amount of detail or gives you the level of information that Audiolab implementation does here… If you’re looking at getting into music streaming, this is really a fantastic option… it really does keep things simple. It is a great streamer, but you have all these fantastic inputs on the back for alternate sources as well. It fills as a whole that I don’t know that many other products at this price point really do, offering you functionality and ease. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT9ETwxHW5w
I had zero expectations going into this review… I can happy say that the 6000A Play is insanely impressive. This is an incredibly capable amplifier…While it has only 50w per dance of power, the control it has over any speaker connected to it, I would have swore that this amp was way, way more powerful! As impressed as I am with the (6000A) Play’s sonic performance, I have to say that the built-in DAC is pretty damn good! The integrations and communication between the app (DST Play-Fi) and the audiolab is excellent. The audiolab as a standalone pre-amp is awesome!

A clean, complete, warm and open sound at the same time characterizes the performance…. even in the headphone output stage Audiolab did not skimp… we are faced with an all-purpose solution that still allows the enthusiast to enjoy absolute quality…it must be considered that the performance with high- resolution streaming services, such as Qobuz, is very high, and in certain conditions it seems even more pleasant than external solutions connected in spdif…. Overall, in short, the Audiolab 6000A Play is an all purpose solution where versatility is accompanied by a quality of the various sections that process it… and the result is heard on a musical level! https://1drv.ms/b/s!AiX7zWNDUK2phIEJkv5sFfDXm2zZRw

Audiolab’s 6000A Play is a comprehensive package… Fast powerful sound underpinned by great bass.

“I enjoyed listening to the 6000A Play/6000CDT combo. At just $300 more than the original 6000A, you get the same crisp, balanced sound I’ve been crowing about along with a beautiful sounding built-in streamer. You also get multi- room capabilities thanks to DTS Play-Fi. If you play discs, the 6000CDT is a perfect companion with its high-end disc mechanism and warm, natural sound. For many people, this combo, along with some of the speakers I’ve mentioned, could easily be their endgame system.” http://hifitrends.com/2020/09/01 /audiolab-6000a-play-wireless-audio-streaming-amplifier6000cdt-cd-transport- review-sensational/

“If you are seeking to move to a dedicated CD transport you should definitely audition the 6000CDT for its smooth operation, sleek looks and constantly robust playback. The 6000A alone is a strong offering and I suspect as more people hear it the market rivals will be working hard to compete, as a combo for me this is a class leader and is punching up the weight class in spades. Solid, punchy, refined and delivering at time a truly detailed but analogue feel, this is one to watch. I suspect Santa may be visiting Audiolab this Christmas for many.

“… I want to say that all of these three integrated amplifiers, purely as integrated amplifiers massively exceeded my expectations… you can feel confident that they’re going to be pushing really pushing good sound for the price points!” 9000A impressed me the most for its technical excellence for the actual sound quality that it delivered and how far it took me in terms of music quality and delivery. So the 9000A really really impressed me and it would be the one I would buy from this listening test. The 7000A delivers the best performance per pound from these. It’s the kind of amplifier sitting exactly where you would expect them to be for their performance against their price. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjO0VTx0ryU
Generally, it’s my preference for audio products to be… to be well put together, easy to set up, not draw too much of attention, but of course value with the sound experience… the Audiolab 6000A is a very, very value packed equation in this kind of entry level of hi-fi space, getting you a bundle of digital and analogue inputs… the Audiolab 6000A is ready to deliver and offer you a plethora of great listening option.

“Just the right amount of facilities, a snappy and engaging sound, sufficient power and fine build. A great buy for the modern music fan who wants plenty of flexibility… this brilliant integrated does it all.” https://iaggroup.jianguoyun.com/p/De50xfAQ2qS1Bhj2jM0C

It’s an absolute steal… With the 6000A, Audiolab not only belongs on the short list of companies that own the market in integrated amplifiers for under $1000, it’s a name that now comes to the tip of my tongue whenever anyone asks me what they should buy in that range.” https://www.soundstagehifi.com/index.php/system- one/1306-amazing-values-audiolab6000a-integrated-amplifier-dac-and-6000cdt-cd- transport

“Superb CD performance and great hi-res sound… The arrival of Audiolab’s 8300CDQ is likely to cause much grinding of teeth among its price rivals. It takes the recipe of the original 8200CDQ, polishes it and adds useful functionality that will stand it in good stead for many years to come.” https://iaggroup.jianguoyun.com/p/DQknx68Q2qS1BhinkM0C
“The new Audiolab 8300CDQ player is a stellar performer. Along with an impressive CD player you also get a full range of digital inputs, allied to a selection of filters that allow fine-tuning of the sound. Audiolab have excelled here. There’s nothing to fault in terms of sound quality and operational performance.” https://iaggroup.jianguoyun.com/p/DSVgmNEQ2qS1BhiRjMEB
“Also included in the 8300CDQ’s specs is MQA decoding. MQA or Master Quality Authenticated, is a high-resolution digital audio format for music streaming that’s available via a number of sites including Tidal’s Master streaming service. With MQA, the idea is that you hear the original recording’s full resolution in a way that’s adapted and maximised for the highest quality playback on your device.” https://www.trustedreviews.com/news/8300cdq-joins- audiolabs-8300-series-3654587
“Very audiophile combination of CD player, D/A converter and preamplifier with outstanding digital technology that even supports MQA. Replaces single components of the upper class, at least. Sounds very fine, precise and musical.” https://iaggroup.jianguoyun.com/p/DWJxgUAQ2qS1Bhj1zrAB
