Elekit TU-882 Vacuum Tube (5670W x 2) Headphone Amp

Photobucket

In these days, various music devices such as portable audio players have diversified the ways to enjoy music; nevertheless, the richness in daily life that we can feel from the sound produced from vacuum tube amplifiers is now being re-evaluated.

TU-882R(kit)/TU-882AS (pcb assembled ) vacuum tube stereo headphone amplifier was developed for the enjoyment of the vacuum tube sound from a digital sound source without being interference of the surrounding environment.

The mechanical specification is as rich as the sound it produces. A number of input/output terminals are available; 3 levels of headphone output terminals (LOW, MIDDLE, and HIGH) that allow you to use any commercially available headphones, and an input priority terminal at the front panel, and on the back side, a loop-through output terminal that outputs the input signals as they are.

The coupling capacitor uses a non-inductive PP film capacitor which has excellent electric characteristics in non-inductive construction.

The cathode bypass capacitor uses an OS-CON (organic semiconductor capacitor). In addition, the power transformer has a magnetic flux leakage reducing configuration alongside the shield panel which is installed in a special way so that the influence to other surrounding parts and components is minimized to produce the best quality sound.

With all these features, we hope you enjoy the clear and rich sound of TU-882 Vacuum tube stereo headphone amplifier

Some of the superior features of the OS-CON type capacitor:

Very low ESR
ESR is stable over a wide temperature range
Wide temperature range -55 degrees C to 105 degrees C
Wide frequency range
High ripple current capability
Long life
