T+A Symphonia Streaming Integrated Amplifier

Overview

With this streaming amplifier, we pay homage to nearly 50 years of Engineering Emotion. Breathing life into the claim “The Future of Retro” this device is both a bold look to the future of audio as well as a nod to the generations of T+A engineers, designers and craftspeople past and present whose ideas and hands have helped shape some of the most iconic devices, be it in terms of technology, looks or aesthetics.

Merging our very latest in streaming technology, digital to analogue conversion and amplification with an industrial design that celebrates our most beloved past products, from phased front panels to hand assembled VU-meters, the Symphonia is retro in the very best sense of the term: grounded in the past without just rehashing it yet also embracing the future without forgetting its roots. It combines the past and modernity on the quest to be a sonic companion for eternity.

Concept

Like every T+A product, the Symphonia was crafted with a bold vision: to deliver a universally capable “one-box system” that redefines what’s possible. With an extensive array of sources, it offers near-limitless playback options. Its advanced DSD and PCM converters transform digital signals into rich, analogue soundscapes of breathtaking quality, while the built-in amplifiers – boasting 250 watts of power – bring this sound to life with remarkable clarity and depth.

At the heart of the Symphonia lies the third generation of our Audiophile Streaming Architecture (ASA G3). This cutting-edge combination of hard- and software ensures effortless access to streaming services, USB sources, and a seamless, intuitive experience with Connect Services, allowing you to play music directly from some of your favourite mobile apps.

Design

Measuring 10 x 38 x 34 cm (H x W x D), the Symphonia is more than a product; it’s a celebration of nearly fifty years of T+A design tradition. Its proportions pay homage to our first preamplifiers from 1985, while its control elements and VU meters evoke the innovative spirit of our modern Series 200. The beveled edges of the front panel nod to the timeless elegance of our iconic R Series, carefully refined since the 1990s.

Few buttons, thoughtfully placed, grace its extended front panel, and rotary push controls offer swift, intuitive access to every function and setting. From the first stroke on an empty piece of paper, to it’s hardware design all the way to hundreds of thousands of lines of software code, the Symphonia was designed not just to keep pace with the digital age but to elevate the opportunities it brings.
