Reference A-300 Power Amplifier
The Reference A-300 celebrates and continues the Plinius tradition of building world-class amplifiers that deliver powerful, pure sound, are built to last and look simply stunning.
The Reference A-300 is an evolution of previous models. Throughout the design process each and every part has been reviewed, evaluated and refined. Every subsection of the electronics boasts changes to components, specification, layout and interconnection resulting in a truly sophisticated amplifier.
The A-300 uses high quality, low-noise, audio grade capacitors, low-noise power components and custom high capacity power supply capacitors. Couple this with a brand new external styling that still pays homage to Plinius’ signature aesthetic and you have a true force of nature.
If you love the feeling of being immersed in music The Reference A-300 promises absolute satisfaction. Power and depth are married together with pureness and clarity.
The Reference A-300 is the pinnacle of the Plinius Range. It’s designed to take advantage of every aspect of the Reference M-10 preamplifier’s sophisticated circuitry and drive the finest high-end speakers with finesse.

‘The Plinius Reference amplifiers are fast and snappy and, I believe, have the enviable ability to please both audiophiles and music lovers alike. Even with all that beefy power and deep, tuneful bass, the A-300 and M-10 pairing have a very delicate and discerning touch so any little details and vocal or instrument inflections can be easily distinguished. Nothing I heard sounded exaggerated, not even the lower frequencies – everything was natural and unforced, elegant and neutral.’

‘I might as well start right out and say it… I am in awe. My staff are in awe. Random customers walking in during this busy Christmas season are in awe. Even the UPS and FedEx delivery people are in awe. Within seconds of hitting ‘play’, our jaws dropped to the floor and they haven’t come up since. These new Reference pieces from Plinius are absolutely brilliant! The soundstage, the imaging, the ease of low bass output, the speed and transparency… in all these areas the new Plinius pieces are second to none. They are downright seductive. Everyone here is fighting over who gets to choose the next album we hear. And as if the sound quality wasn’t enough… the style, the build quality, and the obvious attention to detail are all evident from the moment the pieces are unboxed. Congrats to the Plinius team for making top-end separates that are truly world class.’
