These hand-wired monoblock amplifiers portray music with effortless scale and power. The careful design and component selection enable a variety of output valves to be selected (KT88s are standard fit). Power valve options are: EL34; KT77; 6L6; 6550 and KT88.

With low-noise power supplies and circuitry, the Triode Amp sounds clean even with very efficient speakers, and triode operation from input to output makes for pristine sound quality at very low levels but still provides enough power to drive less efficient speakers.

Bias is adjusted manually, using the meter and adjusting screws.

Realisticaly, these amps will complement most speaker designs found in the UK.
