Orchard Audio Launches Its First Integrated Amplifier for $3000 at Capital Audiofest

November 4, 2026, Succasunna, New Jersey – Orchard Audio is announcing the launch of its newest high-performance audio solution: the Starkrimson 25 Integrated. Engineered for music lovers and audiophiles who demand uncompromising clarity, effortless power, and pristine detail, this new integrated stereo amplifier represents the culmination of Orchard Audio’s proprietary technology and design philosophy.

The Starkrimson 25 Integrated will make its official debut at Capital Audiofest (Nov 13–15). Show attendees will have the opportunity to hear the unit in action, and Orchard Audio will begin accepting orders for the amplifier shortly following the event.

At the heart of the Starkrimson 25 Integrated is Orchard Audio’s state-of-the-art (SOTA) Starkrimson 25 Gallium Nitride Megahertz (GaNM) amplifier technology. This architecture delivers 150W into 8Ω and 200W into 4Ω, while remaining completely stable down to 1-ohm to handle even the most demanding loudspeakers. To achieve exceptional channel separation and dynamic headroom, Orchard Audio designed it as a true dual-mono system, equipping each channel with its own dedicated 350W power supply.

To preserve every nuance of your audio source, volume control is handled by a precision stepped relay attenuator utilizing ultra-low-noise Panasonic resistors. Combined with the power stage, the system delivers a wide overall gain adjustment range from -58.5 dB to +27.5 dB in 0.5 dB steps, ensuring optimal dynamic range and pristine channel matching across all volume levels.
