INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the decco125! The original decco that Peachtree Audio
launched over a decade ago was a ground-breaking product that featured a USB input
and built-in DAC to facilitate audio streaming from a computer. The whole concept of
“computer audio” was cutting-edge at the time and other brands eventually followed
Peachtree Audio’s lead and built-in USB DACs became an industry standard over time.
The new decco takes the integrated amplier concept another step further and
addresses the most critical component in a Hi-Fi system; the speaker. The amplier
inside the decco is designed to drive virtually any pair of traditional speakers, but when
it is paired with the optional duet speakers, it becomes a 3-way, fully-active, Hi-Fi
system that easily outperforms much larger and more expensive systems.
A portion of the decco rear panel is modular. As shipped from Peachtree, the rear
panel is congured to drive a pair of traditional loudspeakers. When the optional duet
speakers are added, the rear panel is replaced with a new one that congures the
decco to drive the speakers in a fully active conguration including individually amplied
drivers, active crossovers and equalization.
The new decco carries on the Peachtree tradition of form follows function. The front
panel is machined out of a single piece of aluminum and designed to emulate an old
car radio with a single row of buttons and a volume knob. Simply select the desired
input and adjust the volume to easily enjoy all of your music! The chassis is wrapped
in a beautiful real-wood cabinet that has been a calling card of Peachtree Audio since
the original decco was launched over a decade ago.
The new decco is designed to handle a wide range of inputs. There is a USB input for
a computer along with an optical input for another digital audio source like a streamer
or a disc player. There are two analog inputs as well. One for a turntable (with a MM
cartridge) and a second for a cassette deck or other “line-level” analog source device.
The decco also includes an optional wireless input to facilitate audio streaming directly
from mobile devices and Internet streaming services. On the front panel, there is a
headphone output capable of driving a wide range of headphones for enjoying your
music without disturbing others.

enjoyment. It represents a new standard for value, exibility and innovation in the
market. Thank you again for choosing Peachtree and happy listening!
