Exposure 2010S Integrated Amplifier
The Exposure 2010S is a solid-state integrated amplifier built in the UK, part of the company's modern-era lineup. Not much is on record for this model. No production years, original price or formal review data have surfaced. What is documented comes mostly from forum posts, classified listings and a manual that survives online.
Here is what the record does show. The 2010S delivers 75 watts per channel into 8 ohms, with input sensitivity rated at 250mV. It has six line-level RCA inputs, enough for a CD player, tuner, tape deck and more. It has no headphone output. The phono stage is an optional Exposure Phono Board, and it has to be bought separately from the manufacturer. One period source notes that the 2010 S power amplifier could be switched to mono mode by paralleling the channels, not bridging them, for extra current.
Owner opinion is mixed but generally favorable. One forum user voted for the Exposure over an Arcam A80. Another said that in theory the Exposure should sound more lively than the Arcam. A third dismissed both options outright. One commenter described the sound as a bit more open and detailed at low volume, while another found it somewhat bright. One seller claimed the model was rated class A in Stereophile, though no specific review issue or measurement was cited. For rock and electronic music, one user suggested looking to Naim instead.
On the secondary market, the 2010S has appeared at $500 in the US and NZ$750 in New Zealand. In Russia in 2011, a buyer was looking within a 15,000-ruble budget. A 2010S2 integrated sold for $700 in 2015. A repair video exists online, but no specific common failures are documented.
