Ideal for efficient speakers in the 95db and up range. That includes horns, many single driver systems and such. To insure a perfect fit in your system, variable negative feedback was installed.
This is a fun to use amplifier! It's gentle on the tubes, produces so little heat it's not worth mentioning and does carry a vintage El84 tone signature: Smooth, organic, flowing, not in your face. It's an amplifier to relax with. If you're into vocals, the midrange is impeccable! Lows and highs are smooth as silk.
I can guarantee there is no better amp for classic single ended EL84 tone- straight from the 50's and 60's.
If you would like a bigger rendition- that can be done as well. We have a 40lb transformer package that's used with the NS-10.
Instead of using a single El84, they can be paralleled. Sound quality is not sacrificed and the wattage is increased.
