Description

HERE NOW AND READY TO SHIP!

Successful Beta testing has been ongoing for later part of 2009. New KT88 based push pull 140 watt amplifier with 60 watt Triode operation. One of the nicest Pentode operating amplifier we've heard at ANY price. The M3000 in Triode gives a taste of what a big SET amp sounds like, truly a BEST BUY!

Loaded with features, a pleasure to operate. Individual metered and fused Tube operation. 4/8 ohms with new transformer toggle system allowing for 100% transformer windings in either impedance. Balanced and single ended with ground floating. All milled aluminum chassis in choice of Black or Silver. Wood crated for safe deliveries. Surface rack handles for easier lifting and the list goes on.

INTRODUCING THE M-3000 MONOBLOCK POWER AMPLIFIER

The M-3000 monoblocks are Allnic Audio’s top of the line, parallel push-pull power amplifier model. Like all Allnic Audio products, the M-3000 has Permalloy (iron and nickel alloy) for its transformer cores. Allnic is grateful to Mr. G.W. Elmen of Western Electric for inventing Permalloy for transformer core use, and in so doing, providing an enormous service to recorded music listeners everywhere. The M-3000 has the following features:
•140 watts of high power output. The M-3000 is a parallel push-pull, triode/pentode switchable power amplifier.
•Powerful Driving Circuitry. Allnic believes in the importance of using high-quality, low noise and powerful driving circuitry in all its amplifying devices. Therefore, in the M-3000, we employ the E282F tube in triode mode as the second stage driver tube, with a load of about 5K ohms, and using 20mA of current. The listener can easily hear and even "feel" the differences between this design and other, more conventional, ones. Please imagine, as you listen to the M-3000, its sound compared to the sound of an amplifier with conventional 12AU7 or 12BH7's used as drivers, with a load of about 47K ohm, and using 2 to 3mA of current.
•“Full Engagement" Output Transformers. Conventional output transformers use pre-set secondary windings to accommodate 4, 8 and 16 ohm loudspeaker loads. However, these conventional transformers utilize only one secondary winding at a time, while the other secondary windings remain "idle". This approach has two adverse effects. First, the output transformers are not working at their maximum efficiency, reducing their output relative to their potential. Second, the "idle" windings are not actually "idle"; they are subject to parasitic oscillations, producing their own "signal". This undesirable electrical information is additive to the transformer's output, distorting the amplified signal going to the loudspeaker. Allnic's "Full Engagement" transformers address these issues by having 4 independent, secondary windings which are always fully connected, never "idled". This means that all secondary windings are always connected to your loudspeakers, regardless of which output switch position you use (4 ohms or 8 ohms or 8 ohms or 16 ohms, depending on the factory configuration you have selected). The result is that there is neither a loss of transformer output efficiency, nor the introduction into the output signal of distortion from parasitic oscillations of the secondary windings.
•Large Nickel/FeSi Core Output Transformers. As with our other models, Allnic uses very large output transformers (114 mm) with nickel, mixed with FeSi, cores. This provides for higher inductance with fewer windings than other designs can provide and results in the great benefit of an extremely wide range of output frequencies.
•"Soft-start" Circuitry. Allnic uses soft start circuitry that, after sufficient warm-up only, provides the high voltage supply to the plate of each tube. This protective design results in prolonged tube life and fewer and less frequent issues with tube performance.
•Analogue Power Tube Current Monitors. In order to provide constant current (bias) monitoring for the power tubes, Allnic uses a separate analogue current meter for each tube. The meters make it exceptionally easy to see the status of each tube at any time and to respond immediately to any variation in bias by use of the bias control knob for the relevant tube. The meters offer a simple, unambiguous indication of each tube's status compared to conventional LED bias monitors. •"On-the-Fly" Triode/Pentode Switching. Switching between triode and pentode operation can be done "on-the-fly" at any time while the amplifier is in use.
•Beautiful 20KHz square wave response.

The pictures do not do justice. The M3000's sonics, build quality and  user friendly operation takes the fear away from owning a big tube amplifier. Please call for more pictures.

NICE TRADES ALWAYS WELCOME!
