EXPOSURE ADDS TO NEW 3510 SERIES WITH PREAMPLIFIER AND STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER
Exposure 3510 Pre Amplifier and Exposure 3510 Stereo Power Amplifier add to the British brand’s 3510 series of components.
In 2021, the British HiFi brand Exposure launched the Exposure 3510 integrated amplifier. This is now followed by a new Exposure 3510 preamplifier and Exposure 3510 stereo power amplifier combination.
EXPOSURE 3510 SERIES
The new 3510 series shares many design elements with Exposure’s top-of-range 5010 series. First in the series was the 3510 integrated amplifier which replaced and improved upon the award-winning 3010S2D of the outgoing 3010 series. Now it’s the turn of the 3010 series pre- and power amplifiers to hang up their hats, as they are similarly replaced by new 3510 models.
EXPOSURE 3510 PRE AMPLIFIER
The 3510 preamplifier sports six line inputs, with the option to substitute one of these to fit an MC or MM phono module or a plug-in DAC. There are two main RCA outputs and one tape output. High quality relays are used for input source selection, while audio output stages use discrete transistor class A output buffers.
HOME CINEMA
On the AV input there is a choice of fixed or variable gain, allowing configuration as either a regular stereo input or a fixed gain home cinema input.
EXPOSURE 3510 PRE AMPLIFIER TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Output level 1.9V for rated input (gain +18dB full volume)
Maximum output 7.7V RMS @ 1kHz
Frequency response 20Hz – 20kHz ± 0.25dB
Total harmonic distortion <0.005% at rated output, ref. 1kHz
Signal to noise ratio >100dB, A weighted
Input impedance 18k Ohms minimum
Input sensitivity 250mV
Power consumption <25W
Dimensions 90mm (h) x 440mm (w) x 300mm (d)
Weight 7kg net (unpackaged) / 9kg gross (packaged)
The Exposure 3510 preamp features all discrete transistors in the gain stage with a hybrid power supply circuit designed to ensure low noise on the supply rails to the gain stage. Input switching and volume tracking of the PCB have been further optimised for less crosstalk.
EXPOSURE 3510 STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER
The Exposure 3510 stereo power amplifier delivers 110W RMS per channel into 8 Ohms, making it useful for driving difficult speaker loads, particularly, says Exposure, in bi-amping mode with the 3510 integrated amplifier.
EXPOSURE 3510 STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER SPECIFICATIONS
Power output (stereo) 110W per channel at 1kHz into 8 Ohms
Frequency response 20Hz – 20kHz ± 0.5dB
Total harmonic distortion <0.015% at rated output, ref. 1kHz
Signal to noise ratio >100dB, ref. rated output
Channel separation >60dB, 20Hz – 20kHz
Input impedance 18k Ohms
Input sensitivity 1.85V @ 1kHz
Power consumption <400W, 8 Ohms load both channels driven
Dimensions 115mm (h) x 440mm (w) x 300mm (d)
Weight 12kg net (unpackaged) / 14kg gross (packaged)
BLACK OR TITANIUM FINISH
Both components features Exposure’s signature minimalist design, with full aluminium casework and extruded front panel to control resonance and stray electro-magnetic fields. Both are available in black or titanium.
EXPOSURE 3510 PRE AMPLIFIER AND EXPOSURE 3510 STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER PRICING AND AVAILABILITY
The Exposure 3510 preamplifier and stereo power amplifier are available now, priced at £1,590 each (incl. VAT).
