2. McIntosh MC-2300 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McIntosh_MC-2300

   During the 1970s, the MC-2300 was an expensive piece of audio equipment, with a retail price of $1799 by the time of its discontinuation in 1980. [1] That being said, its outstanding power and sound production quality made it a valued part of many recording studios and although some people prefer the sound of tube amplifiers, the overall greater reliability and freedom from repair of the newer ...

3. Valve amplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_amplifier

   6N3C power tube. A valve amplifier or tube amplifier is a type of electronic amplifier that uses vacuum tubes to increase the amplitude or power of a signal.Low to medium power valve amplifiers for frequencies below the microwaves were largely replaced by solid state amplifiers in the 1960s and 1970s.

4. Preamplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preamplifier

   An example of a typical high-end stereo preamplifier. A preamplifier, also known as a preamp, is an electronic amplifier that converts a weak electrical signal into an output signal strong enough to be noise-tolerant and strong enough for further processing, or for sending to a power amplifier and a loudspeaker.

   In the early 2000s, the company worked with Bruce Egnater of Egnater Amplification to create the MTS (Modular Tube System) series of guitar amplifiers. These involve a single amp head consisting of the power amp and part of a preamp, and slots in the head (one for the RM20 head and combo, two for the RM50 head and combo and RM22 head, and 3 for the RM100 head and RM100C combo, and 12 for the ...

6. Bass amplifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_amplifier

   The tube preamp gives the player the ability to obtain tube amplifier tone, which tube enthusiasts state is "warmer" than a solid state (transistor) preamp. As well, tube users state that tube preamps have a more pleasing-sounding, natural tone when the preamp's volume is pushed up so high that the bass signal becomes overdriven; in contrast, a ...

7. Tube sound - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_sound

   Tube sound (or valve sound) is the characteristic sound associated with a vacuum tube amplifier (valve amplifier in British English), a vacuum tube-based audio amplifier. [1] At first, the concept of tube sound did not exist, because practically all electronic amplification of audio signals was done with vacuum tubes and other comparable ...
