Valve Audio amplification
Valve Audio Predator 250 integrated hybrid amplifier
Designed to meet the need for a high power integrated hybrid amplifier, the Predator provides state of the art signal processing using classic cathode follower and plate-loaded techniques with absolute minimal local feedback. Ultra high-speed rectifiers are used in a dual mono layout, sharing only the transformer. Plate-loading the driver stages offers high levels of transparency and detail.
The Predator is a very powerful amplifier, delivering far more than the quoted 200w per channel. It also delivers current by the truckload. The build quality is exemplary and a far cry from the plastic and tin we are being exposed to daily. It is likely to be the last integrated unit you ever want to own.
