Audio Note Empress power amplifier. ( 2x 2A3 ) Level 3; 8 Watts in Class A; single-stroke, feedback-free mono power amplifiers with parallel connection of a pair of 2A3 output triodes, a lamp-rectified power supply and a smoothing choke. Audio Note Neiro monoblocks have always occupied a special place among Audio Note (UK) amplifiers. Audio Note Neiro creates 8 of the most melodic, most emotional Watts imaginable, through the use of a pair of legendary 2A3 lamps per channel and our own very special copper/silver output transformers. Accordingly, the voice of these amplifiers is deeply respected by audiophiles all over the world.

Audio Note Gaku-On
The Audio Note Gaku-On amplifier is the pinnacle of our monaural amplifiers, and we did not consider any costs during their development and production. The most sophisticated components are used, including a variety of Black Gate™ capacitors, our own Audio Note (UK) silver foil capacitors and tantalum resistors, silver wire and the finest metals for all transformers, as well as silver wiring for the entire signal circuit.

Audio Note Shinri
Audio Note Shinri power amplifier. ( 1x 300B ) Level 4; 10 Watts in Class A; single-stroke, feedback-free mono power amplifiers on a single 300B output lamp. Operating in pure Class A, the single-stroke tube amplifier, which uses one 300V direct-channel triode in each channel, represents a performance level radically superior to most modern analogues. The Audio Note Shinri was specifically designed for music playback, not a technical specification, and meets the Audio Note Level 4 criteria.
