About the I22
The Primare I22 is a high-quality, upgradable integrated amplifier designed as the centerpiece of a home hi-fi system. It delivers 80 watts per channel at 8 ohms using twin proprietary Ultra-Fast Power Device (UFPD) power modules, which provide a naturally fast, clean, and agile sound across a wide frequency range with exceptional headroom. The amplifier is highly efficient, producing minimal heat and featuring an eco-friendly standby mode consuming only 0.3W. The front panel is minimalist with three buttons and a volume knob, complemented by a white dimmable VFD display that shows volume and input information. It includes four line-level RCA inputs, with no balanced XLR inputs, and can be optionally upgraded with a DAC board that adds USB-B, optical (TOSLINK), and coaxial (SPDIF) digital inputs supporting up to 24-bit/192kHz resolution. The amplifier supports integration with home control systems via RS232 and trigger ports. It is available in black or titanium finish and weighs approximately 10 kg. The I22 is praised for its Scandinavian design restraint, solid build quality, and the advanced Class D amplifier design that integrates the output filter for consistent performance and low distortion. The unit is suitable for driving a wide range of speakers and is well regarded for its sound quality and efficiency.
