Customer Ratings & Reviews

Technics has taken "D" class amplifiers and has exploded all the negativity about them, With today's technology, Class D amps are efficient, they run cooler and are silent. The SU-G700 has 140 watts at 4 ohms and provides plenty of punch to the SVS Ultra Bookshelfs connected to it. The features of this unit are in keeping with any pure 2-channel audiophile kit, but the Technics engineers did things that are superlative. Case in point: the (full-size) headphone jack has a separate Class "AA" amp that automatically adjusts impedance for great headphone output. It also has bass, treble and mid equalization, a ergonomic remote and of course the wonderful VU meters (with adjustable dimming). At $2,500.00, there are more powerful choices, but the technology, engineering, quality and sound of this kit is in class by itself. Understated, elegant and a great value for the money. Oh, and did I mention those VU Meters? A+ +.

The technics SU-g700 is a true stereo amplifier with a touch of vintage. It is a beautiful amp with an amazing sound. If you are looking for details and a wide dynamic range in sound, this is the perfect amp to buy. The sound might be too digital for some since it is a Class D amp but there's no doubt that technics did a beautiful by creating a such masterpiece. Please do not expect this stereo amp to sound like a Marantz. Marantz's sound is kind of warm, smooth. The technical sound is very straightforward , very neutral with no noise . If you are building a stereo system with this amp , you may consider an external dac or a network cd player since there is no Bluetooth or wifi build in .
