Hybrid integrated amplifier 2 x 150 W with a tube pre-stage and a discrete volume control based on resistive arrays and relay switching. The output stage is transistor, operating in Class D with analog power supply.
KT88 tube integrated amplifier in pure class A with operational switching of output stage modes (triode – ultralinear). The offset of the output stage is automatic. There is a possibility of bridging to implement the monoblock mode without an additional pre-amplifier. The volume is controlled using resistive attenuators with relay switching (separate for each channel). In the monoblock mode, the volume controls are synchronized according to the Master-Slave principle.
An integrated tube amplifier with an innovative pure class A circuit with automatic current offset of the output stage, which is implemented on KT88 lamps with the ability to quickly switch the "triode-ultralinear" modes. A pair of amplifiers can be used in a bridge connection as monoblocks with double the power.
The Canor Virtus A3 hybrid integrated amplifier provides an output power of 100 watts per channel when operating on a load with a nominal resistance of 8 ohms and 150 watts for a load of 4 ohms. The power amplifier uses differential feedback, which reads the audio output at both the positive and negative speaker terminals to ensure maximum linearity.
