torodial transformer that feeds up to 8 Toshiba output transistors. Wina,
Solen capacitors throughout the preamp and main amplification circuits. The
amplifier produces 95 watts per channel into 8 ohms and doubles it (190
watts) into 4 ohms for a clear detailed sound.

Bass: The solid state amp extends the bass - considerable kick and slam. Mids:. The preamp section warms up the mids quite a bit.
Selection of tubes is critical for achieving correct midrange balance. See "Tube Righteousness" Highs: Slightly extended. Pure solid
state amps extend the highs much better. Dynamics: Achieves goal of a dynamic, warm amp. Air around instruments: Adequate for
the price point. The selection of tubes is critical here. Body and trouble throwing images to the left and the right of speaker.
Resolution / Detail: Considerably above the norm for its price / point,. Value: You are not going to beat it at this price point. Don't
even try. Amps at the price point cannot even get close.
