SW1X AMP V “Titan” Integrated Amplifier

AMP V Titan Integrated Amplifier HiFi Amplifier

SW1X Audio Design™ AMP V “Titan”

Performance Level 3/4/5

300B DHT Integrated Amplifier

AMP V is a 3 gain stage Power Amplifier coupled with a High Quality Pre-amplifier using our in house designed and in house made stepped attenuator volume control.

It is not only extremely musical but also powerful and in the same time refined sounding Integrated Amplifier.

The Directly Heated 300B Triodes at the output need no introduction. They are driven by equally powerful 6N6P/5687/E182CC driver tubes or by popular 6SN7 input/driver tubes to produce seemsless linear and balanced sound.

Available in different versions: Special and the limited Signature version with different power output transformer options (Permalloy or SHiB and UHiB) and all Copper or Copper/Silver windings

“The Titan imparted class-leading differentiation of dynamics and tonalities between instruments from the four woofers and the field-coil main driver, and the consistency with which the integrated amplifier did so with different recordings highlighted an engineering feat so thorough in forging a signal path of the purest as to be fanatical.”
