Hibachi amps are built with discrete transistors. A class A/B design with a twist - near zero feedback is finally achieved in a solid state design with sideline out of audio path DC nullification circuitry. This new feedback technology reveals recorded harmonic information like tubes. Each balanced pair stage is directly wired without coupling caps for outstanding perfect phase clarity. An enormous high current 8-pound hum free pure copper toroidal power transformer feeds an extra large filter cap bank to promote high speed bass current capability. Hibachi amps reveal ear pleasing tube amp 2nd order harmonic content other solid state amps by design can not play. 205 Watts with 4-Ohm speakers, 180W with 8-Ohm speakers. This powerhouse pair is made to deliver the best possible sound from speakers rated above 85db/1-Watt. 2-Ohm to 24-Ohm impedance, efficient horns to low impedance fluctuating electrostatic panels are a great match. Beautiful deep clear coat piano black enclosures have removable rubber isolation feet. Place on the floor near speakers or in your audio rack, horizontal or vertical. They run warm to the touch, make sure the cooling fins have access open air space - cranked up cooling fins will become hot to the touch but not sizzling hot. Have it all: Bass kicking solid state with live in the room high definition midrange imagery. Over 350 pairs are plugged in and singing around the country. A very satisfying ear pleasing pair of amps. In demand on the used market. Extreme bang for buck price/sound quality ratio.

  • Versatile high quality 4-Way Solid Nickel RCA Input jacks (Single Gold RCA on H2SE - no extra jacks): Use one RCA for the normal mono block input. Extra Jacks have many purposes. You can combine L & R preamp signals on the amplifier using 2 RCA jacks to make a Mono center speaker amplifier. Has 2 more RCA jacks to easily daisy chain connect another amp for bi-amp capable speakers. Can use the extra jacks for Home Theater: Connect your HT processor front L-R and your 2-chan music preamp L-R outputs to each amplifier at the same time - has a unique TAD designed isolation network on the RCA jacks. Extra RCA jacks are ideal for connecting signal to a powered subwoofer too.
