  2. 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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_amplifier

    The tube preamplified signal in a hybrid amplifier head is then sent to a solid state power amplifier. Compared with tube power amps, solid state power amplifiers are more reliable, require less maintenance, less fragile and lighter in weight. A hybrid tube preamp/solid state power amp thus provides a bass player with the benefits of both ...

  4. 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.

  5. Fender amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fender_amplifier

    The tube amps in the series feature hand-wired eyelet board construction and are also becoming sought-after collectors items, due to the design and build quality. The range included one small tube-driven bass amp, the Bassman 20. There were also some solid-state amplifiers using the II moniker, such as the Harvard Reverb II. Other solid-state ...

  6. Guitar amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guitar_amplifier

    A hybrid amplifier involves one of two combinations of tube and solid-state amplification. It may have a tube power amp fed by a solid-state pre-amp circuit, as in most of the original MusicMan amplifiers. Alternatively, a tube preamplifier can feed a solid-state output stage, as in models from Kustom, Hartke, SWR, and Vox. This approach ...

    These were joined by the Bassman 100 combo and the tube-powered Bassman 300 head in 2002. [11] In 2005 all the solid-state combos were replaced with much smaller and lighter, and more powerful models, the Bassman 100, 150, and 250. The Bassman 250 was available with two speaker combinations or as a head only. [11] These solid-state Bassman amps ...

  8. Marshall Amplification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Amplification

    Many of the current and reissue Marshall amps continue to use valves (tubes) rather than transistors, as is common in this market sector. [5] Marshall Amplification also manufactures solid-state, hybrid (vacuum tube and solid state) and modelling amplifiers.

  9. Valve audio amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_audio_amplifier

    A valve audio amplifier or vacuum tube audio amplifier is a valve amplifier used for sound reinforcement, sound recording and reproduction. Until the invention of solid state devices such as the transistor , all electronic amplification was produced by valve (tube) amplifiers.
