The “best” integrated amplifier incorporating Grandioso “X” Edition amplifier technologies.

The “best” integrated amplifier you could ever ask for: The new F Series integrated amplifiers are the culmination of a range of technologies designed to meet your ideals. Incorporating all the preamp and power amp developments of the flagship Grandioso “X” Edition, the new F Series integrated amplifiers deliver exceptional musicality that captures the rich textures of music in a single integrated amplifier. Despite the fact that the F Series is an integrated amplifier, it offers a quality and all-round performance that will be the envy of any user of separate amplifiers. The F Series is the integrated amplifier that owners of Esoteric’s K and N Series digital players have been waiting for, and it pushes the boundaries of integrated amplifier technology.
