The Tom Evans Linear A and Linear B amplifiers
are truly revolutionary, groundbreaking designs.
Both the Linear A stereo amp, and the Linear
B monoblock amps are ultrawide bandwidth designs with vanishingly low levels of distortion. More importantly, unlike
some other amps with those same two qualities, these amps are incredibly involving and a joy to listen to.
The
Linear A is a hybrid, single ended, Class A, ultralinear stereo amp with a power rating of 25WPC. Four EL84
tubes per side, in parallel, create a composite tube with characteristics almost identical to the legendary Japanese No.10
tube. The amp measures as an almost perfect model triode, promising to deliver the often sought but rarely realized linearity
benefits of triode topology without it's usual limitations.
Paired with an appropriate speaker (recommended loudspeaker
sensitivity of 87 dB or higher), this amp can do it all in a way nothing else in our experience has ever been able to do;
luscious midrange combined with rarely realized frequency extension. The absence of distortion has to be (not) heard to be
fully understood. The clarity and detail retrieval are astonishing, but not at the expense of musicality. It's a combination
of qualities we have never heard outside of the two Tom Evans amps. We invite and welcome comparison with any amp in the world,
at any price.
