NAKAMICHI IA-2 Nakamichi 300 Unit Limited Edition! Linaeum A-1 Set

Thank you for viewing!

This is a set of the Nakamichi IA-2 and Linaeum A-1, which were sold in a limited edition of only 300 units in 1993! The only accessory included is the remote control!

The Nakamichi has some minor scratches and small dents, but is in generally good condition! The rare remote control is also included! Operation of volume, input switching, bass, and treble has been confirmed!
When adjusting the volume with the remote, the volume knob on the main unit moves automatically!

Items confirmed for sound output:

Rear panel
Power terminal → OK
Speaker terminals A/B → OK
CD input → OK
Tuner input → OK
AUX input → OK
Tape1 & Tape2 input → OK
Phono terminal → Not confirmed (cannot confirm as I do not have a record player)

I connected an iPod to the AUX input and played music, and also filmed a video. However, Mercari does not allow video uploads. If you have a good method for this, please let me know.

Regarding the Linaeum A-1, I intended to repair it and removed the edges, leaving it in that state. Please consider it a bonus! The dome has dents and scratches. When playing sound, one speaker buzzes, possibly due to the removal of the edges. It is recommended that someone who can repair the edges and the speaker be the buyer!

Nakamichi IA-2 Integrated Amplifier, a limited edition of 300 units.

The pre-amplifier and power amplifier sections utilize Nakamichi's unique Harmonic Time Alignment Amplifier circuit.

This circuit addresses the phase shift between the music signal and its harmonic distortion, a drawback of NFB (Negative Feedback) widely used to improve amplifier characteristics. It incorporates techniques for correctly phase-aligning the fundamental tone and distortion components by maintaining a constant amount of NFB within the audio band and minimizing the NFB amount itself through a wide-band, low-gain, open-loop design.

There is a possibility of overlooking other functions. This is audio equipment from around 1990. Please purchase only if you have the knowledge.
