Serbia’s Trafomatic Audio continues to expand their Experience line of tube powered products. The new Experience Head One continues the tradition of a gorgeous polished wood chassis and gold hardware. The Head One is designed around two Russian 6S45Ps, chosen for their robustness and linear characteristics. An indirectly heated EZ80 or EZ81 rectifier tube provides low noise level and soft start without transitional effects.
Additional features include Rubicon electrolytic capacitors, an Alps volume pot, a 30-100-300 Ohms impedance selector, CD and Aux inputs, and rather unusually for a headphone amp, line and subwoofer outputs. The Experience Head One is priced at just under $900. [ Via Trafomatic Audio]
