ADJUSTMENTS / FEEDBACK
!
The TORII JR has ZERO global negative feedback and can therefor cast an
intoxicatingly deep sound stage in a well done room. The 3D imaging capabilities of
this product are benchmark and faithful to the recording.
!
Because this amplifier employes an ultra-linear output stage design combined with a
vacuum tube regulated power supply to handle the phase inverter/input stage, it gives
a very linear response just like the SET amps that inspired it. Due to this inherent
linearity, no treble or bass adjustments are needed nor provided.

INPUT TUBES

!
The input tube / phase inverter in the TORII JR is a 6922. Possible substitutions are a
6DJ8, 7DJ8, 6N23P. In rare cases, where high efficiency horn speakers are used and
only 5 watts are needed, a 6N1P can be used as it has the warmest signature and can
often times balance the forward nature of super efficient horn speakers.

ALTERNATE OUTPUT TUBES
!
Alternate quads of output tubes that could be used in this amplifier IF and ONLY IF the
amplifier is re-biased for that specific quad are: 6L6's, 5881's, KT77's, 7027's, KT66's,
EL34's, 6CA7's.

If you desire to have a different sounding output tube, please refer to the end of this
manual on how to bias the amp for the specific matched quad of tubes you intend to
install.
