G1217 PROJECT HORIZON III TUBE HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER / PRE AMP US BUILT 5 YR WNTY

Description

THIS LISTING IS FOR A FULLY BUILT PROJECT HORIZON AMPLIFIER (5 year warranty)
WITH
VINTAGE 12AU7 RCA CLEARTOP
TUBE PLUS 48V POWER SUPPLY
- ACRYLIC CHASSIS
Our goal with Project Horizon was to produce a highly tune-able class A hybrid which targets higher impedance headphones (120-600ohm)  Project
Horizon
will let you roll a LARGE selection of 6 & 12V tubes and will power them properly with a dedicated heater power supply. Some other features like selectable output impedance,
easy LED bia
s setting and the
ability to take the input capacitors out of line with the audio signal
are things other manufacturers just do not offer.
This amp has it where it counts!
This amp is open, dynamic and plays with authority.
In short,
this
is not
a cheap toy with counterfeit parts on a cheap PCB
. This is a beautifully designed & engineered amp you can truly own and enjoy for a lifetime.
Features of Horizon 3.1:
- Designed for higher impedance headphones. Best suited for headphones 300-600ohm but OK with headphones 120-600ohm
- Line output for pre-amp use (volume controlled)
- Manual bias design with easy-set LED bias system, no multimeter needed
- Manual voltage setting with quick access through top cover
- Variable input gain with easy to swap module
- Capable of utilizing a wide range of 6v and 12v tubes. More options available with adapters (500mA heater current default, 1A available with option supercharger module)
- Selectable output impedance per quick access jumpers located on the sides of the amplifier
- Lightning quick protection circuit with tube warm up delay
- Onboard RGB LED under the tube to dial in a color that suits you
- Top quality components sourced in the US from reputable distributors. No gray market or counterfeit components that plague other manufacturers (designed for the long haul)
- Beautiful piano gloss black .096 thick double sided PCB in 2oz copper with top and bottom ground planes & gold wash. Will not bend or flex while inserting a tube
- Class A output stage, no overall Feedback
- Medical grade power supply included
- 5 YEAR WARRANTY on G1217 built amplifiers
- Shipped, built and kitted from the US
- US / Netherlands design team
For Advanced Tuners:
- Input capacitor section is drilled for multiple capacitor footprints. 2, 2.5, 3.5, 5 or 7.5mm spacing available
- Output capacitor section is drilled for 7.5mm
- Power supply capacitor section is drilled for 7.5mm
- Input capacitors can be bypassed for optimal sound (can result in a scratchy sound only when adjusting volume)
- Variable output resistance, selectable from 1.5, 35 and 120ohm
