The A-S2200 is an integrated amplifier by Yamaha that delivers 90 watts x 2 channels into 8 ohms and 150 watts x 2 channels into 4 ohms. It was released in May 2020. It is a 2-channel design using a Class A/B output stage. A minimum impedance of 4 ohms makes it compatible with a wide range of loudspeakers. It also has a phono input, so a turntable can connect straight to it. The Yamaha A-S2200 has an MSRP of $4,500.

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 Yamaha A-S2200 is rated at 90 watts RMS into 8-ohms. Yamaha provides this wattage at a THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) of 0.07% which is an important indicator of distortion at the given values (lower THD is better).
Here are the main highlights of its performance specs:
- 90 watts into 8-ohms (5 Hz-100 kHz) at 0.07%
- 150 watts into 4-ohms
- 4-ohms Min Impedance (allows compatibility with a wide range of loudspeakers)
- 110dB Signal to Noise Ratio

Which speakers suit the Yamaha A-S2200?
90 W into 8 ohms, 150 W into 4, rated down to 4 ohms.
We rank every passive speaker we cover against it on power, impedance safety and current
delivery.
Need more power?
Yamaha A-S2200 is rated at 90 watts into 8 ohms, which puts it in our 61 to 90 watts band. The next band up is 91 to 120 watts, which is worth about 1.5dB more output. That is a real difference in headroom on peaks, and a modest one in how loud the system plays - power and loudness are not the same thing.
Before buying watts, check what your speakers actually need: the amp and speaker matcher works it out from their sensitivity, impedance and your room. Plenty of systems are better served by the Up to 60 watts band and better speakers.
When pairing the Yamaha A-S2200 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 Yamaha A-S2200 Amplifier good for?
An essential deciding factor is the size of the room in which you intend to employ the Yamaha A-S2200 amplifier. Here, taking into account its maximum power parameters, we analyzed its applicability to various size environments:

Bluetooth Connectivity
Yamaha A-S2200 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 Yamaha A-S2200. 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
Yamaha A-S2200 features one Phono Input which is compatible with
MM (Moving Magnet) type of phono cartridges, you can connect your turntable with MM cartridges directly to this amp without the need for a phono preamp. If you are using an MC cartridge on your turntable, you need to use a phono preamp that has MC phono stage such as the
Cambridge Duo or the
iFi ZEN Phono.
Subwoofer Output
Yamaha A-S2200 has Stereo RCA preamp outputs which can be used to connect to a powered subwoofer via an RCA cable ( as long as your sub supports this connection).
