Audio Note Baransu
The Audio Note (UK) BARANSU Mono Power Amplifiers are Pure Class A Single Ended Triode valve amplifiers that use a single 300B valve per channel, producing a level of performance that is radically superior to the vast majority of current designs.
They have been specifically engineered for sonic performance rather than technical specification, and fulfil all Audio Note (UK) Level 5 criteria: –
Each amplifier is completely hand assembled, and uses only the finest possible materials and components: –
Audio Note (UK) custom Output Transformers, using AN(UK) silver windings and AN-Perma 50% Nickel Double C cores
Audio Note (UK) custom 2 Watt Tantalum resistors
Audio Note (UK) Kaisei electrolytic capacitors in critical areas
