{"product_id":"rotel-michi-x3-series-2-integrated-amplifier","title":"Rotel Michi X3 Series 2 Integrated Amplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Michi X3 Series 2 is the compact integrated amplifier in Rotel's flagship Michi range, and it is built to a very different standard from Rotel's mainstream models. It pairs 350 watts per channel of Class A\/B power into 4 ohms with an 8-channel ESS SABRE ES9028PRO digital to analog converter, giving it both the muscle to drive nearly any loudspeaker and a genuinely high-end digital front end in one chassis. This second-series version refines the original with updated circuitry while keeping the understated industrial design the Michi line is known for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSource support is comprehensive. There are balanced XLR and single-ended RCA line inputs, a moving magnet phono stage for turntables, coaxial and optical digital inputs, and a PC-USB input that renders MQA, PCM and DSD, along with aptX HD Bluetooth for wireless streaming. The unit is Roon Tested, carries tone controls with a bypass, and offers a preamp output for adding external power amplification later. For a listener who wants Michi build quality and power without the size and cost of the larger X5, the X3 Series 2 is the entry into the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMichi flagship integrated amplifier in a compact chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e350 watts per channel Class A\/B into 4 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e200 watts per channel continuous into 8 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-channel ESS SABRE ES9028PRO digital to analog converter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalanced XLR and single-ended RCA line inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoving magnet phono stage for turntables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoaxial, optical and PC-USB digital inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePC-USB renders MQA, PCM and DSD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eaptX HD and AAC Bluetooth for wireless streaming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertified Roon Tested for network playback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTone controls and a preamp output for future expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDamping factor of 350 for tight bass control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eWarranty\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2-year manufacturer's warranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eWhy Consider the Michi X3 Series 2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost integrated amplifiers at this level make you decide between raw power and digital sophistication. The X3 Series 2 refuses that trade-off. The Class A\/B output section has the current to control demanding speakers, while the 8-channel ESS SABRE DAC is the kind of converter usually found in dedicated standalone units, so a listener can run a serious streaming and vinyl system without buying a separate DAC or phono stage. It is also the sensible size in the Michi range, delivering the brand's build and sound in a cabinet that fits a normal rack rather than the far larger X5. For someone stepping up from a mainstream integrated into genuine high-end territory, this is the natural place to start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListeners stepping up from a mainstream integrated to high-end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDemanding loudspeakers that need real power and damping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystems combining streaming, vinyl and digital sources in one box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVinyl owners using moving magnet cartridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoon users wanting a certified endpoint amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuyers who want Michi quality without the size of the X5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ph-inbox-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMichi X3 Series 2 integrated amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemote control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOwner's manual and documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 12px; color: #555;\"\u003e[VERIFY: box contents not listed on the source page.
