Details
Controls: Input selector, volume control
I/O: RCA input; RCA output (pass-through); 2x single-ended headphone outputs
Notable use: Original flagship reference headphone amp (Red Dot Design Award 2014); circuit basis for the current A20
Notes: FLAG DISCONTINUED: the A2 is no longer in current production/catalog (out of stock at major retailers, not found on NA site); included per research brief's explicit scope but should be treated as a legacy/historical reference model rather than a currently purchasable product. Price left blank since not currently sold new.
