What about the inside? The transformer depends on the specifications, but mainly from Hashimoto Denki, and the advanced models use custom Astro Electronics specifications.
Selected internal parts, such as self-bias capacitors, are generally used, for example, for 200 to 300 micrometers.ASTORWe use a capacitor that is orders of magnitude larger than 8,000 micro.
This ensures that the sound is clearly expressed even at low volumes without losing weight. These parts are carefully wired one by one using a single oxygen-free copper wire.
A stunning circuitry wired in a two-stage structure with heat dissipation, vibration control and noise prevention.ASTORThe wiring is completely uneven and it's just a beautiful word.
The design gives the impression of the realms of a craftsman.
The feet that support this chassis are equipped with a foot base carved from oxygen-free copper or aluminum alloy blocks. We take even more attention to vibration control by clamping young cow leather between the foot base and chassis.
actuallyASTORThe amplifier has a circuit breaker that can be detected even from the outside, and if there is an abnormality, a blue (or green) LED amplifier lights up under the body.
This is a surprisingly useful feature when an issue arises, as it makes it easy to determine whether the amplifier is the cause or an external factor when there is a problem.
The final part of the amplifiers is an anodized 10mm thick aluminum alloy front panel and an aluminum alloy block knob.
The smooth texture makes it very comfortable and easy to use.
This time we mainly introduced advanced grades with stainless steel bodies, but the amps with low-priced aluminum alloy chassis are basically made of the same.
It is an aluminum alloy commonly known as 52S, and is made of rust-resistant, high-strength, and particularly strong, anti-fatigue.
How was it? Even a littleASTORI think they understood the product. Of course, the most important thing is sound!
In short, it's "high transparency." It's a straight, comfortable sound without any coloring.
It's a bit expensive if you look at the price alone, but considering the content and production process, I don't think it's expensive at all.
