The Rotel A14MKII is a Class AB integrated amplifier delivering 80 watts per channel into 8 ohms, rising to 150 watts into 4 ohms. A critically tuned power supply, DAC and amplifier circuit combine analogue, digital, PC-USB with MQA decoding, moving magnet phono and aptX and AAC Bluetooth in one flagship-of-the-14-Series chassis.
An oversized toroidal transformer and four slit-foil capacitors supply the output stage, and tone controls with a bypass mode keep the signal path clean when full-range tonal adjustment is not needed. The A14MKII is certified Roon Tested for reliable network playback.

Why Consider the Rotel A14MKII
As the flagship of Rotel's 14 Series, the A14MKII offers the widest connectivity and highest power output in that family, useful where the room or loudspeakers demand more than the A12MKII or A11MKII can supply. The combination of MQA decoding, a phono stage and Bluetooth in one amplifier suits a household using several different source types without wanting several separate boxes.
Ideal For
- Medium rooms with moderately demanding loudspeakers
- Households mixing vinyl, streaming and digital sources
- Listeners wanting MQA decoding without a separate streamer
- A step up from the A12MKII where more power is needed
