TEAC announced the AP-507, the Reference 500 series compact stereo power amplifier with Hypex NCOREx TEAC custom module. Available in black and sliver finishes, the AP-507 is a stereo power amplifier designed to be used as a standalone stereo unit or paired for configurations like bi-amp mode or high-power BTL mode (350W/8 ohms).
