Owners Manual

With 6 or 12 tubes, our Valve Output Stage is the best way to enhance your system for improved realism and musicality. Our

proprietary Totem-Pole Output Stage design, with six independent audio stages per tube, guarantees ultra-wide bandwidth

response and ultra-low distortion to deliver the purest audio signal ever.

Thanks to new audio inputs on the rear panel our valve output stages can be connected with up to two sources at the same

time using the TUBE INPUT for the Gold Note sources and the LINE INPUT for other manufacturers. The input can be easily

selected from the front panel for maximum convenience and ease of use.
