The MaiA S3 keeps Pro-Ject's all-in-one amplifier concept with a reworked circuit and the new S3 case. Being larger, this case allowed an improved circuit board layout against electromagnetic interference. The unit delivers 2 x 23 W into 8 ohms and 2 x 40 W into 4 ohms.
The phono stage accepts MM, MI or high-output MC cartridges, and three RCA line inputs take a tuner or any other analogue source. The Cirrus Logic CS4344 24-bit/192 kHz DAC handles one coaxial and two optical inputs. Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD streams music from a smartphone in high definition.
The 6.3 mm headphone jack accepts headphones from 16 to 600 ohms. Speakers connect with 4 mm banana plugs, spades or bare wire. A variable RCA output lets you add a subwoofer, and the remote control is included.
The MaiA S3 is made in Europe by experienced technicians, engineers and designers. It measures 20.6 cm wide, 5.5 cm high and 15.3 cm deep, and weighs 1.07 kg. It comes in black or silver.
