SOULNOTE Series 2 Ver. 2 – Precision, resonance control and musicality at a new level

More than just a subtle facelift – between 600 and 800 new components per model!

Pre-order items may have a delivery time.

With the new SOULNOTE Series 2 Ver. 2, the Japanese high-end manufacturer takes its successful A-2, D-2, and E-2 models to the next level. Each device has been comprehensively redesigned and directly benefits from the developments of the SOULNOTE 3 reference series .

The result: An even more natural, dynamic and open sound – combined with technical precision, consistent resonance control and uncompromising craftsmanship “Made in Japan” .

New features of the SOULNOTE Series 2 Ver. 2

  • New circuit architectures with know-how from the 3-Series

  • Improved power supply and resonance optimization

  • Precise timing and minimized jitter behavior

  • Maximum flexibility for digital, analog and optical sources

  • Handmade in Japan for uncompromising quality


A-2 Ver. 2 – Powerful, controlled and musical

The new SOULNOTE A-2 Ver. 2 has been comprehensively optimized in all its components. The parallel push-pull output stage with TO3P transistors (familiar from the A-3 series) delivers twice the current output capability and ensures maximum stability – even with low-impedance loudspeakers.

Each transistor is carefully paired, and the driver stage also uses TO3P transistors, ensuring precise current control with minimal distortion. A four-stage Darlington circuit further enhances the driver performance.

A generously sized, non-impregnated toroidal transformer with reduced output voltage ensures exceptional current reserves. The deliberate omission of lacquer or resin potting preserves the natural resonance characteristics – the finest musical nuances are reproduced without distortion.

The relay-controlled resistance volume control guarantees precise channel balance without signal distortion.
As with all SOULNOTE components , 70 µm thick copper circuit boards , direct solder connections without plug contacts and a resonance-optimized housing with an unscrewed lid are used – for maximum purity and naturalness of the sound.


Special features A-2 Ver. 2

  • New front design in the style of the 3 Series Reference

  • Including new Reference remote control

  • Optimized resonance behavior for maximum musicality

  • 100% handmade in Japan

Safety instructions

Electronic devices:
1. General Use: • Electronic devices are designed for use in enclosed, dry rooms only. Direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperatures may impair function. • Avoid proximity to water sources or other liquids. 2. Electrical Safety: • Use only with the specified power source (e.g., 220-240 V AC). An incorrect power source may damage the device or be hazardous. • Never connect the device to overloaded outlets or extension cords. • If there is any visible damage to the power cord or other components, do not operate the device. 3. Operation and Ventilation: • Place the device on a stable, flat surface. Do not block any ventilation slots to prevent overheating. • Ensure sufficient distance from other devices or walls (at least 10 cm) to ensure optimal ventilation. 4. Children and Pets: • Keep the device away from children and pets, especially small parts that could be swallowed.
Speakers:
1. Setup: • Place speakers on a stable and secure surface or use suitable speaker stands. Tipping over may cause injury or damage. • Position speakers so they are not obstructed and optimal sound dispersion is ensured. 2. Environmental Conditions: • Speakers are intended for use in dry, enclosed spaces. Avoid moisture and direct sunlight, which could damage materials or electronics. 3. Connections: • Use only compatible amplifiers and cables that meet the speaker's technical specifications. • Avoid incorrect polarity connections to prevent damage to the speaker or amplifier. 4. Children and Pets: • Speakers are not toys. Make sure they are placed out of reach of children and pets. 5. Care: • Clean the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use chemical cleaners or water.
Cable:
1. Use: • Cables are for their intended use only. Use them only with devices that meet the cable's technical specifications. • Ensure that all connections are secure and tight for optimum performance. 2. Handling: • Never pull on the cable to remove it from a device. Always hold the plug firmly. • Do not bend, overstretch, or place excessive strain on the cable. Cables should not run under heavy objects. 3. Children and Pets: • Keep cables away from children and pets as they can be a strangulation or injury hazard. 4. Inspection: • Check cables regularly for visible damage such as breaks, cracks, or frayed ends. Damaged cables must be replaced immediately.
Accesories:
1. Use: • Accessories such as adapters, mounts or cleaning utensils must only be used for their intended purpose. Incorrect use can cause damage. 2. Care: • Clean accessories only according to the manufacturer's instructions. Avoid harsh cleaning agents or use in damp environments. 3. Safety: • Ensure accessories are correctly fitted or connected to prevent accidents or malfunctions. 4. Children and pets: • Accessories, especially small parts, pose a choking hazard and should be kept out of reach of children and pets.

Common instructions for all categories: • Operating instructions: Read the operating instructions carefully before using the product. • Repairs: Do not open or repair the product yourself.
