The Yamaha A-S301 is a two-channel Class AB integrated stereo amplifier introduced around 2014. It combines Yamaha’s ToP-ART signal-path design, Pure Direct mode, continuously variable loudness control, an MM phono stage, line-level inputs, optical and coaxial digital inputs, speaker A/B outputs, headphone output, recording outputs, and a subwoofer output. Its rated output is 60 watts per channel into 8 ohms, with sufficient current capability for many 4-ohm loudspeakers. The official Yamaha product pages and manuals located for this product indicate that it remains an active listed model in some markets; therefore it should not be classified as no longer manufactured globally. Availability and production status may vary by region.
