Performance Specs
One of the most important factors when deciding on an integrated amplifier is its power ratings and compatibility with your speaker's impedance requirements.The T+A M 200 is rated at 210 watts RMS into 8-ohms.
Here are the main highlights of its performance specs:
- 210 watts into 8-ohms
- 420 watts into 4-ohms
- 4-ohms Min Impedance (allows compatibility with a wide range of loudspeakers)

Wiring more than one pair of speakers to it? Check the load first →
Which speakers suit the T+A M 200?
210 W into 8 ohms, 420 W into 4, rated down to 4 ohms.
We rank every passive speaker we cover against it on power, impedance safety and current
delivery.
When pairing the T+A M 200 with a passive Bookshelf (Stand mount) or Passive Floor Standing (Tower) speaker, you have to check if their Max Power Range is below the max wattage of the amp for the given impedance levels.
Operating your amp outside of this max range may damage the speakers.
What size of room is the T+A M 200 Amplifier good for?
An essential deciding factor is the size of the room in which you intend to employ the T+A M 200 amplifier. Here, taking into account its maximum power parameters, we analyzed its applicability to various size environments:
| Listening Environment |

| Near-field | Are you nuts? |
| Small Room | Bad |
| Mid-size Room | Poor |
| Large Room | Good |
| Very Large Room | Good |
Inputs and Outputs
Besides the performance specs of the T+A M 200, the next important feature set that you have to evaluate is the input and output selections that it offers.
T+A M 200 has total of 2 Analog inputs .

Bluetooth Connectivity
T+A M 200 doesn't have bluetooth connectivity feature. In order to stream your music via bluetooth, the easiest way is to connect an external bluetooth receiver to your T+A M 200. Two bluetooth receivers that we recommend are the
iFi Zen Blue V2 and the
Audioengine B1.
Among the amps in the same price range, these are the 5 amps that have Bluetooth Connectivity:
Phono Input
T+A M 200 doesn't have a phono input so in order to play your vinyl albums, T+A M 200 has to be paired with a Phono Preamp that is MM (Moving Magnet) or/and MC (Moving COil) depending on your cartridge type.
T+A M 200 External Dimensions and Weight
T+A M 200 has external dimensions of (H x W x D) 3-15/16 x 12-5/8 x 13-3/8 inch (100 x 320 x 340 mm ). The unit weighs
4.99 kg (11 lbs).
Base Surface Area

How much power does the T+A M 200 have?
The T+A M 200 delivers 210 watts into 8 ohms and 420 watts into 4 ohms, per chassis. This is a monoblock: a stereo system needs two. Its output almost doubles into 4 ohms, which points to a strong power supply that can hold its composure with demanding, low-impedance speakers.
Does the T+A M 200 use vacuum tubes?
No. The T+A M 200 is a solid-state amplifier - there are no vacuum tubes in it.
What amplifier class is the T+A M 200?
The T+A M 200 uses a Class D amplifier design. Class D is a modern switching design that runs cool and wastes very little energy as heat, which is how makers fit high power into a compact, light chassis.
Does the T+A M 200 have a built-in DAC?
No. The T+A M 200 has no built-in DAC, so a digital source such as a streamer or CD transport needs its own converter, or you connect it over analogue.
Can I connect a turntable to the T+A M 200?
No. The T+A M 200 has no phono input, so a turntable needs an external phono preamp (or a deck with one built in) before it can be connected.
Does the T+A M 200 have Bluetooth?
No. The T+A M 200 does not have Bluetooth built in; you would need an external Bluetooth receiver connected to one of its inputs.
Does the T+A M 200 have a headphone output?
No. The T+A M 200 does not have a headphone output, so headphone listening needs a separate headphone amplifier.
How much does the T+A M 200 cost?
The T+A M 200 has a manufacturer's list price (MSRP) of $5,995.
