About the 3510 Integrated Amplifier

The Exposure 3510 integrated amplifier is for listeners who care about timing, tone and truth. No gimmicks, no distractions – just proper hi-fi engineering, and a distinctive Exposure sound that music lovers return to night after night.

Refined where it matters

Drawing on design cues from the flagship 5010 series, this integrated amplifier evolves Exposure’s platform into a more refined and more capable design. Its rated output of 110 watts per channel into 8 ohms, with channel separation held above 60dB across the full frequency range, gives it the authority to handle demanding loudspeakers with ease.

The result is extended low-frequency performance with tuneful bass, sparkling highs and an open mid-band that creates genuine space around every recording – the distinctive Exposure sound, immediately recognisable.

Honest, uncoloured performance

This amplifier isn’t about clever tricks. It’s about balance, grip and musical flow – preserving the energy of a live performance without adding flavour or smoothing things over.

Short signal paths, high-quality capacitors and classic Class AB architecture give the 3510 a sound that’s open, confident and composed even as the volume rises.

Designed for real systems

Six line inputs, a separate preamplifier output and dual speaker terminals for bi-wiring mean the amplifier integrates easily into most systems. Input sensitivity is 250mV, input impedance 17kΩ – chosen to work well with a wide range of sources. There’s a fixed-gain AV input for home cinema use and a front-panel headphone output for private listening.

Thick aluminium casework with an extruded front panel controls resonance and stray electromagnetic fields, and the damped chassis is built to minimise interference and maximise longevity.

Optional phono stage and DAC

The 3510 integrated amplifier can be fitted with an internal phono card or DAC module – nothing included unless it earns its place. Two phono cards are available: one for moving magnet and high-output moving coil cartridges, the other for low-output moving coil cartridges. The DAC option adds an asynchronous USB input alongside BNC coaxial and Toslink optical connections.

How it compares

The 3510 integrated amplifier builds on the outgoing 3010S2D with an improved power supply, better internal layout, greater dynamic range and improved low-level resolution. It also sits at the heart of a wider matching series – preamplifierstereo power amplifiermono power amplifiers and CD player – with room to move up to the 5510 integrated amplifier at £4,600 if you want more power in a similar-sized package.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the 3510 compare to the Exposure 3010S2D?

The 3510 builds on the 3010S2D with an improved power supply design, better internal layout, greater dynamic range and improved low-level resolution. It’s a meaningful step forward in both sound quality and long-term refinement.

What kind of sound can I expect?

Balanced, open and confident. The 3510 is revealing without being clinical — excellent timing, real low-end grip and a natural sense of scale. It doesn’t draw attention to itself. It draws you into the music.

What does it sound like at low volume?

Exceptionally well. The 3510 holds tonal balance and clarity at lower listening levels without artificial loudness compensation or tonal shaping — a quality that matters far more in daily use than peak output figures.

Does it include a phono stage or DAC?

Not as standard, but both are available as optional plug-in modules: moving magnet or moving coil phono stages, and a DAC board with USB, BNC and Toslink inputs. Both fit internally and take just a few minutes to install.

Does it need running in?

Like most high-quality amplifiers, the 3510 benefits from some running-in time. Allow 50–100 hours of use for it to open up fully — though it performs well straight out of the box.

Can I connect two pairs of speakers?

The dual speaker terminals are designed primarily for bi-wiring. A second pair can technically be connected, but check that the combined impedance load doesn’t fall below safe limits for the power amplifier stage.

Can I use it in a home cinema system?

Yes. One of the six line inputs can be configured to fixed gain, allowing the 3510 to handle front left and right channels in a surround setup without affecting its performance as a standalone hi-fi integrated amplifier.

What’s the headphone output like?

It’s a proper circuit, not an afterthought. The front-panel headphone output delivers a maximum level of 7V RMS into 330 ohms at 0.01% total harmonic distortion — more than capable of driving demanding headphones with control and authority.

Can I audition it before buying?

If you’re local, we can arrange a demonstration by appointment. Otherwise, we offer a 30-day returns policy — try it at home, in your own system, with your own music.
