Orchard Audio launches the Starkrimson 25 Integrated

Orchard Audio has announced a new two-channel integrated amplifier. The Orchard Audio Starkrimson 25 Integrated has a rated RMS output of 150W per channel into 8Ω and 200W per channel into 4Ω, with a US MSRP of US$2,999.95.

Announced in Succasunna, New Jersey, on 4 November 2026, the amplifier is scheduled to make its public debut at Capital Audiofest in Rockville, Maryland, from 13 to 15 November 2026. Attendees will be able to hear the amplifier at the show. Pre-orders are planned to open on Orchard Audio's website shortly after the event.

The amplifier uses Orchard Audio's Starkrimson 25 Gallium Nitride Megahertz Class D architecture, with GaN output-stage transistors and a switching frequency of approximately 1.1MHz. It incorporates proprietary dual-feedback circuitry. The dual-mono design gives each channel a dedicated 350W power supply, and the specified minimum stable load is 1Ω.

Four stereo analogue inputs comprise two balanced XLR pairs and two unbalanced RCA pairs. Volume adjustment uses a stepped relay attenuator fitted with precision low-noise Panasonic resistors. Overall gain across the preamplifier and power-amplifier stages is adjustable from −58.5dB to +27.5dB in 0.5dB steps.

The black chassis measures 17 inches wide, 10.5 inches deep and 3.25 inches high. A volume control sits on the front panel, with ventilation across the upper surface.
