What is Carina?
Carina is Peachtree Audio’s new flagship integrated amplifier. It combines several of the sound quality enhancements introduced in the nova500 with the power and price point of the nova300. It is Peachtree Audio’s first product with the critically acclaimed Hypex N-Core amplifier technology built-in. Carina also brings several new features to a Peachtree amplifier for the first time.
Why we made Carina
Very simply, to establish a new benchmark for integrated amplifiers at their price. Our ongoing testing of available technologies identified a combination of DAC, preamplifier and power amplifier technologies that worked extremely well together to create an exceptional listening experience at a reasonable price. Carina is an easy-to-use, highly transparent integrated amplifier that drives a wide range of speakers (and headphones!) with ease, and accepts up to 6 digital inputs including Bluetooth.

How does Carina sound?
It is our best-sounding integrated amplifier to date, period. Even better than the highly regarded nova500, the Grand Integrated and the classic nova and decco amplifiers that have come before. To celebrate this achievement we have broken with tradition and given it a unique name: Carina. Carina is a name in the Italian language that roughly translates to “pretty” and is derived from the Latin word Carus which means “beloved.” We are confident that Carina looks and performs better than anything else in its price range – and many products that cost significantly more – and that Carina will earn a place in your heart and mind, too!
