The MOON by Simaudio 250i v2 is a solid-state Class A/B stereo integrated amplifier combining a line-level preamplifier, 50-watt-per-channel power amplifier, MM phono stage, headphone output, and preamplifier output. It has five rear-panel single-ended RCA inputs, including a moving-magnet phono input, plus a front-panel 3.5 mm mini-jack for portable media players. The amplifier uses a 320 VA power transformer, 20,000 µF of filter capacitance, proprietary MOON bipolar output transistors, a full-function CRM-3 remote, and integration connections including SimLink, IR, and RS-232. It does not include a DAC, digital inputs, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or network-streaming functions. Based on Simaudio’s current product listing, the 250i v2 is still an active manufactured product.
