The Essentia, as the name suggests, consists of only one TriodeFet stage, powered directly and used as a simple single-stroke amplifier, and uses the "essence" of Geminea technology. The inputs include our proprietary AC link input, as well as the variable gain Transformer Volume Control (TVC) input, which is also present on the big brother, with a 6-level selection.

    Aries Cerat Diana Forte

    The output and driver stages of the Diana Forte are the same as those of the Diana Integrated. The power has increased to 60 watts per channel. At the output of the terminal amplifier there are large 813 straight-channel triodes, which are paired with a complex output transformer that provides maximum frequency expansion at full power. The 814th pentode (in triode mode) is loaded onto a dual bifilar interstage EI-core transformer created for this model.
