TIDAL Audio Launches New Reference Amplifier

Hürth, Germany, December 2021 – Effective Immediately, TIDAL-Audio GmbH is proud to announce the TIDAL Intra Power Amplifier.

The TIDAL Intra results from the uncompromising implementation of our most basic requirement: pure amplification of the musical signal without adding any sonic color or concealing even the smallest of details. A TIDAL basic since founding the company, it is the successor of our award winning and worldwide praised TIDAL Impulse. The TIDAL Intra is first, and above all, a high-end stereo power amplifier that contains two physically divided stereo modules inside. For the first time we have used a new design out of class-A and class-D technology for an amplifier.

From Jörn Janczak: "The TIDAL Intra is a pretty big deal for us, since we can now offer reference sound in the size and weight of our preamplifier Prisma or the Camira DMC. Or, to say it differently: a TIDAL reference amplifier experience from us in unknown outside dimensions. In fact, for the Intra we used for the first time original down-scaled technology from our reference project, the TIDAL for Bugatti ‘Royale’. In order to achieve this, we needed to combine completely diametric challenges, like sound vs. size, sound vs. efficiency etc.. One of the main keys was to analyze and overcome what makes class-D sound not as good as other traditional technologies, and this was a long and tricky process. But since the amplification module of the “Royale” delivered a performance beyond what we thought is possible, we decided to trickle it down to get a scaled down version of it inside the cabinet of our preamp. The result is the TIDAL Intra.”
