Description

The Technics SU-GX70 Grand Class Network Audio Amplifier is your one-stop solution for audio connectivity, delivering a world of music and convenience to your fingertips. Whether you're a music enthusiast, movie buff, or simply love great sound, this amplifier has it all.

Versatile Source Connectivity

The SU-GX70 covers all your audio sources with ease. It features a built-in Google Chromecast platform, granting you access to a vast array of streaming services, including Spotify, TIDAL, Deezer, Amazon Music, and more. Bluetooth and AirPlay 2 are also included, ensuring seamless wireless connections. For your TV, there's an HDMI with ARC (Audio Return Channel), making it perfect for enhancing your TV's audio quality. USB sockets support various media players, while digital and analogue connections accommodate all your music sources, including a dedicated MM input for your turntable.

Pure Sound Through Technics Innovation

At the heart of this innovative Technics receiver lies a digital amplifier featuring Technics' JENO (Jitter Elimination and Noise-shaping Optimization) engine. The JENO engine is designed to reduce jitter, a common issue in digital amplifiers that can degrade sound quality. With lower jitter, you can enjoy a smoother, more harmonious sound, regardless of your music source.

Reduced Distortion for Cleaner Sound

To truly appreciate music's dynamic range, you need a quiet background without interference. Technics employs twin power supplies and their Clean Power Clock Generator technology to minimize electrical noise. This combination results in a cleaner, more powerful sound with crisp dynamics.

Customized Sound with Space Tune

Download the Technics Audio Centre app (available for Apple iOS only) to fine-tune the sound according to your room's acoustics. Alternatively, choose from four presets – 'Free,' 'Wall,' 'Corner,' and 'Shelf' – for quick and convenient sound adjustments.

Advanced Networking and Connectivity

The SU-GX70 offers advanced networking options, including Chromecast, Apple AirPlay 2, and Bluetooth. Built-in Chromecast is perfect for Android smartphone users, providing easy access to a wide range of music and podcast apps, all controllable from your smartphone. Apple AirPlay 2 enables wireless music streaming from Apple devices. Bluetooth offers quick and straightforward connections for friends to share their music or when Wi-Fi is not available.

Streaming and FM Radio

The SU-GX70 is compatible with popular streaming platforms like Spotify, TIDAL, Amazon Music, Deezer, and features Internet radio for unlimited streaming options. Additionally, it comes with an FM radio built-in for those who prefer traditional broadcasting.

Connect to Your TV

In a true display of innovation, the SU-GX70 includes an HDMI ARC socket, a rarity in stereo receivers. This allows you to connect your TV and experience a significant improvement in TV sound quality. If you want a substantial audio upgrade from a soundbar but aren't ready for a full surround sound system, this is an excellent choice.

Turntable Ready

Technics, known for its beloved turntables, has included a premium-quality phono input for vinyl enthusiasts. The dedicated MM phono input ensures low noise and is compatible with all Moving Magnet-equipped turntables, not just Technics models.

Connect Anything and Everything

The SU-GX70 provides ample connectivity options. USB sockets, including one on the front panel, enable you to connect your media devices and PC effortlessly. A variety of digital and analogue sockets cater to all your other devices, including Blu-ray/DVD/CD players, gaming consoles, and set-top TV boxes.
