AstinTrew launches valve-equipped AT5000 Dual-Mono power amplifier
The AT5000 power amplifier has been designed to offer true audiophile sound at a competitive price point. The design is single ended, using a valve, Schottky diodes and multiple power capacitors offering a large 44 joule capacity per channel in the power supply. The fully dual mono construction, including 2 x 300VA transformers, gives speed, dynamics and the lowest crosstalk.
Short signal paths offer low signal degradation and the outcome is a truly engaging audiophile sound with qualities one would expect only to find in higher priced amplifiers. 50W into 8ohms and 100W into 4ohms output power will be loud enough for most users and bi-amping with two AT5000’s is a cost effective upgrade. All housed in a distinctively designed aluminium case with anodised finishes.
