We are pleased to announce the debut of our new SWL 9.0 Anniversary Edition linestage. Celebrating 16 years in business and 12 years since the release of our first manufactured product, the SWL 9.0SE. The SWL 9.0 Anniversary Edition follows in the proud footsteps of my son's namesake. Spencer Wright is now 12 years old and weights MUCH more than the 9lb. he did at birth!
The SWL 9.0 Anniversary Edition uses the same 5687 family of tubes, but in a cleaner and more refined tube circuit with more sophisticated power supply. It will include a built-in headphone amp and of course remote control for power on/off, volume and mute. Styling will be in keeping with the original, with modern updates. Price will be < $3K.
We are also pleased to show a new SE Tube Amp Design, that involves the collaboration of Electraprint Audio, ModWright, Daedalus Audio and David Palka of CJ Manufacturing.
Earlier this year I spent a week in 'Jedi Training' with Jack Elliano of Electraprint Audio, learning to wind chokes and transformers, as well as the finer art of SE, Class A tube amp design. While I was there, I heard a design that Jack had designed, that blew my mind. We agreed that I would build it, styled in the ModWright Tradition, with top quality parts and aesthetics. Lou from Daedalus built a BEAUTIFUL wood enclosure that machinist David Palka of CJ Manufacturing then finished in solid AL billet and polished SS metalwork. The result is stunning and is a concept piece that I am taking to Capital Audiofest, looking for feedback from those in attendance!
I am working on another tube design, monoblocks, higher power and TRULY over the top, that I plan to show at RMAF. Another collaborative effort!.
Good times ahead!
Thanks,
Dan W.
