    For most of us, a high power tube amplifier is unaffordable. This kit changes that, so that now everybody can enjoy that powerful and lush "tube sound". The sound of tubes has never been surpassed, neither by transistors nor by FETs. In the course of developing this amplifier, special attention was given to the housing so that the tubes are on display in a way that is very pleasing to the eye. The weakest point of a tube amplifier is the output transformers; that's the reason why we use ultra-linear and over-rated toroidal output transformers to guarantee a rich bass response. To extend the life of the precious valves, the amplifier is provided with a switch on delay, so that the high voltage is switched on when the tubes are warmed up. Everything you need to build this kit is included.
