NIAGARA
6BM8 Tube Integrated Amplifier 10W+10W / Optional Phono Stage
Quick Sheet : PDF (Used at our Europe debut)
The NIAGARA is our signature design with high-end parts and components in a small elegant footprint. Our 6BM8/ECL82 Tube Push Pull design on the Niagara is already considered award-wining with its A.D.F.S Technology (Automatic Differential Feedback System) - By applying positive and negative feedback together at the same time, to maintain the best control and stability, while having minimum phase and sound shift for the most realistic sound playbacks. This is perhaps the most advanced design of its kind on the entire market! Yet, to make it the best of the best, there are more to do other than using true audiophile grade transformers and voice the amplifier with our well-known Mundorfs coupling caps. It's also a must to ensure the use of other brand parts and bits for the best possible sonic improvements. The highlight is an additional / separated power supply circuitry that feeds the amplifier, with voltage regulated and purified, which allows the perfect amount and stable voltage to allow the tubes to work as accurately and quietly as possible, to unleash the best sonic potential. Don't underestimate this best 10Ws, the gain and drive are properly useful and plenty as a true "integrated" design; with just 300mv input, we have already easily yielded 9Ws.
