Audion Silver Night Mono Blocks PP & PSE
Audion Silver Night Parallel Single Ended and Push-Pull Monoblock Power Amplifiers
Audion Silver Night Mono block power amplifiers
The Audion Silver Night Anniversary Parallel Single Ended and Push-Pull Mono-block power amplifiers, are hard wired point to point. They represent our intermediate level power amplifiers, using the well known 300B tubes, or lesser known PX25 or 2A3 (with the ability to even use Type 45 valves in the 2A3 version) valves. These amplifiers are hand built and hard wired using solid silver 5 *9’s in some of the audio path.
With power ranging from 18 watts per channel pure class “A” from our PSE Anniversary Silver Night 300B power amp to 24 watts per channel pure class “A” from our 300B push-pull model.
“I urge you to try the Silver Night. Its combination of virtues is first rate and its shortcomings are few – Very highly recommended” – Philip Holmes – Dagogo
We use quality British, European or American components wherever possible and this shows in the final build sound and quality. The Silver Nights all reproduce truly and faithfully fast transients and beautifully musicality with minute detail that brings a total listening experience and new levels of enjoyment.
The Silver Night mono blocks work with a wider range of loudspeakers because of their increased power and truly exhibit all of the subtleties, details and nuances that the valves give a zero feedback design.
“Audion’ Silver Night 300B monoblocks — 24 watts/channel in Class A — superb sound for an efficient pair of loudspeakers” – Inner ear Magazine
These Triode based mono block power amplifiers use unique circuits and of course our own output transformers.
Audion Silver Night PSE 300B Mono block power amps.
The Audion Silver Night Anniversary mono block power amplifiers represent our intermediate range of higher power hard wired triode amplifier.
The hard wired (Air Wired) 30th Anniversary amplifiers delivering either 18 or 24 watts are wired point to point and have a volume control on the front which negates the need for a pre-amplifier in most cases, which is unusual in mono block power amplifiers.
All of our mono block triode amplifiers use unique circuits and are auto-biased so don’t need regular bias changing or complicated setting up.
Our amps are ideally suited to loudspeakers of 89db or greater efficiency but these mono-block versions can cope with slightly lower efficiency.
Sonically, The Triode valves used in the Silver Nights give subtle nuances and texture to the music allowing un-paralleled music finition retrieval. The 300B is a very well know valve that can reproduce delicacies and yet be punchy at the same time. The PX25 although a lesser known valve does (in our opinion) everything the 300B can but with even better bottom end and top kick. We can also offer these amps with the lower powered 2A3 valve, that offers the listener degrees of subtlety and finesse that do really need to be heard to be appreciated.
We also have a Special Edition Silver Night Parallel Single Ended mono block which like all the Special edition series has solid silver audio paths and silver internal interconnects, as well as our custom ” red power tubes” and feature WBT Nextgen binding posts, as well as our new look chassis.
The chassis is made of military grade aluminium, with a durable black powder coated finish. The top plate and badge are finished with mirror polished stainless steel. The special Edition models feature a full depth mirror polished stainless top plate with hidden fixings and organic valve fillets.
