Features patented Heath ULTRA-LINEAR® circuit!

Features

• Conservatively rated at 14 watts per channel
• Circuit boards for easy assembly
• Individual amplifier gain controls
• Supplies preamp power when needed

You'll marvel at this compact, handsomely styled new Heathkit AA-111 Stereo Power Amplifier for two reasons: it possesses all the famous performance characteristics of its illustrious predecessor, the Heathkit AA-30, and it has a rich styling concept that denotes quality the moment you see it. This AA-111 delivers a solid 28 watts. The two channels are hi-fi rated at a full 14 watts each and use Heath's patented ULTRA-LINEAR® circuit to bring you the finest in performance. And remember, you save valuable space in your high fidelity/stereo enclosure or shelves by assembling this compact AA-111, instead of two power amplifiers.

A printed circuit board for each channel simplifies assembly as does Heath's famous "check-by-step" instructions. The circuit boards also insure stability and uniformity of channel operation. Other features of this fabulous unit include individual amplifier gain controls and a one-channel speaker phase reversal switch. You can turn the AA-111 off at either the amplifier or the preamplifier. The output terminals accommodate 4, 8 and 16 ohm speakers and two 117 volt AC receptacles are provided for accessory equipment. The transformer operated power supply is fused for safety.

The AA-111 is designed as a complementary styled companion to the Heathkit AA-11 or AA-141 stereo preamplifiers. And of course, it will function perfectly with any other preamplifiers. The rugged ventilated dust-cover of metallic bronze colored steel protects the components which are mounted on the black chassis. The chassis lower front panel is ivory. Overall dimensions: 13" W x 8½" D x 6" H.
