Tribute

Ken Ishiwata was a true pioneer in his field offering superlative performance upgrades to affordable pieces of HiFi equipment. Improvements to the A11 and CD11 were some of his last pieces of work, later finished by Rotel with approval from the Ishiwata family. Ishiwata meticulously investigated the A11 and upgraded the transformers, capacitors and resistors and also redesigned the signal path for uncompromising natural audio with coherence and complete musicality that is sure to enhance your audio no matter the source.

Powerful Amplifier

The Class AB amplifier provides solid audio signals with 2 x 50W of power output. The 8 ohms impedance will also enhance the sound even more.

The 12V trigger output will let you use a projector and enjoy an engrossing viewing experience.

Great Input Options

The reliable headphone output accepts any 3.5mm mini stereo headphone connectors so you can listen to your music in excellent sound quality on your headphones.
