The two big heatsinks are for the heat dissipation of each channel's, output transistors. They're mounted on each of them while also using thermal paste. You can briefly see a pair of them at 14:06 and 4 of them at 15:15.

I love my Advanced Paris A12 integrated amp. Great sounding amp and very pretty to look at. Got it straight from Cory, thanks again man!

Very helpful! Did not know how to adjust the loudness. My understanding is their is 3 settings. Still not sure how to do a upgrade to software if I had to.

Excellent review. I would point out that "simplistic" doesn't mean what you think it means.

I received my Advance Paris A10 last week. My current setup is Magnepan LRS+, REL Tzero MkIII sub, The music source is a Cambridge Audio Azure 851N which I play FLAC files from an SSD, Rotel CD-11 Tribute CD player. I also have a pair of Emotiva Airmotiv T2+ on channel B. The LRS+ are less efficient and are at least about -10 db compared to the Emotiva's. With that being said, Prior to the Advance Paris A10 I was running an Outlaw Audio RR2160 MkII. I purchased the A10 because the Outlaw seemed to be under powered with LRS+ which are a bit inefficient. The Outlaw and the A10 are about the same wattage wise but I have to say that I was disappointed with the A10's ability to push those LRS+. However, I think the A10 is a better sounding amp. The mids and highs are somewhat pronounced which I like; it's a very addictive sound. However, the bass seems to lack presence and muscle with the LRS+. Running the Emotiva's the A10 pushes them very nicely; also I'm not using the REL subwoofer with the Emotivas. I definitely have to use a subwoofer with the LRS+ and A10. I'm not a "bass head"; in other words I really don't care for room shaking bass. Particularly with the kind of music I predominantly listen to, mostly jazz piano trios, straight jazz with acoustic instruments, upright bass, etc. Additionally with the A10, mellow jazz guitar on some tracks sound a little recessed and distorted more than I've heard on other amplifiers. In both cases whether using the A10 or the Outlaw it seems that I have to turn the volume up quite a bit to get around 80db of sound. I have a 35 year old Carver receiver with a little less wattage than the A10 and the Outlaw that I barely have to turn the volume up that much to get the same volume out, it doesn't sound quite as nice but volume wise it beat the other two. Also the sound-stage with the A10 seems decreased and not as wide compared to the Outlaw RR2160 MkII. The other option I considered was the Rotel 1572 or 1592 MkII which is about the same price. I returned it this morning. It's really difficult trying to make a decision when we don't have retail stores to check the sound out before purchases.

Thanks for the video with the look inside. This does look cool with the black and blue lights. I was concerned about replacing the tubes or if you could roll tubes and the look confirms my fears. I want long term use without problems or repairs so I’ll pass. Rock on guys.
