Push-Pull

The HT-5 power amplifier is a
low powered push-pull design
which produces the crunch
and break-up characteristics
of a traditional 100W output
stage, but at a much lower
volume. This is achieved by
the use of a 12BH7 dual triode valves in push-pull
configuration producing 5 Watts output, which is rich
in valve harmonics and compression, sounding full and
toneful even at the lowest volume level.

controls to give you access to infinite new
sound possibilities.

2. Adjust Bass, Middle and Treble to taste.
3. Adjust ISF to find your sound (the lower
the Mid the greater the effect).
