Voted Hi Fi World Valve Amplifier Of The Year
Beautifully Simple “Single Ended Design”
100% “Pure class A”
28+28 Watts Ultra Linear
18+18 Watts Triode
Remote Control Volume
Designed in Leicester by David Shaw, hand built using only “point to point “wiring without the cheaper Printed Circuit Boards, using full sized audiophile components. Having power enough to drive almost any loudspeaker also having “Pure Triode” option for those preferring a “warmer” presentation.
Icon Audio amplifiers are made to be easily serviced, and the dedicated service centre in Leicester are there to help.
So called “SINGLE ENDED” amplifiers are where only one output valve is used for each channel, this results in ultra-smooth “Pure Class A” performance from the most simple design possible, with an absolute minimal audio path. Previously, affordable Single Ended designs have been low powered at around 9-13w. The excellent new KT150 valve enables more than double this power for the same cost, allowing the use of less efficient speakers to enjoy this format.
