AMPLIFIER TECHNOLOGY
All our know how, experience and passion went into this creation.
We are extremely proud of our amplifiers - everything we though was important - is there.
Specification of our monoblocks:
• Single Ended triode mono block integrated amp (no need for a preamp although it can be useful)
• dimensions WHD : 450 x 140 (250 with tubes) x 500 mm deep
• weight: net 29 kg per each mono before packing (35 kg packed)
• Gross shipping weight of a pair: 70 kg (170 lbs)
• Power consumption: 180 WPC on idle, per channel
• Input impedance: 50 K
• Output impedance (speakers recommended) 4 or 8 Ohm
• Output transformer: OGONOWSKI / Lampizator EI type
• High Voltage transformer: Toroidy.pl
• Biasing: manual (with exposed pot and meter)
• Volume: Stepped input ladder switch (48 SMD resistor pairs)
• Power transformers total crossection: 700 VA. 4 transformers in total per side
• Anode supply: 920 V DC
• Available front colors: black or silver (top always silver)
• Input socket topology: one RCA SE or RCA+XLR for balanced (second input possible)
• Biasing range: -60 to -140 V DC (covers many tube variants)
Possible tubes: GM70, 211, 845 and by request 300B.
The amplifier employs only the most radically “kosher” circuit features like:
-
Single ended triode operation from input to output
-
Pure Class A
-
Zero feedback, neither local nor global
-
Zero solid state parts in audio circuits
-
Unregulated and over specified supplies
-
Separate transformers for each task (four in total per side)
-
Short signal path - from RCA to pot - 2 inches of silver wire, same from pot to first tube, same from the first to the second tube and a hop across one capacitor to main tube without additional wiring.
-
Power tube bias current is monitored on analog needle meter
-
No need for triode matching as the bias is set manually.
-
There is a possibility to compensate aging drift on power tubes
-
All tubes will be available forever in plentiful supply (only circa 160 USD per one of graphite GM70 or 211, or 845 , and 100 USD for all other tubes)
-
Pots can be bypassed completely for the “power amp” operation mode.
-
4 and 8 ohm output taps available for perfect speaker matching
