Hello this is Alan Eaton. My son Jason and I build high quality vacuum tube amplifiers, designed around the best triode tubes ever made, the 45 and 2A3 audio tubes. We are a small business and rely mostly on word of mouth from existing customers.

 

I think many times less can be more. It is like Miles Davis said, the notes you do not play can be as important as the ones you do play. I think and build with the idea that simple circuit designs point to point wiring can produce a cleaner, clearer sound. Sometimes the more you add can muddy the sound you are looking for.

 

The amplifiers we build took many years to reach this point. We start out with a 45 tube that was used starting in the late 1920’s. Lo mu 6SN7 tubes that were used in the 1940’s and a 6AX5 rectifier, which was one of the last slow warm up rectifier tubes every made. We combine that with Tamura inner leaved output transformers made in the early 1960’s. This is one of the best output transformers ever made perfect for a vintage 45 tube. Then vintage Amphenol tube sockets that will last a lifetime made in the 1950’s. We do use some modern parts like gold plated RCA connectors and Alpha gain controls. As I said to make this wonderful sounding amplifier we use the best parts over a span of almost 100 years for the best hand build amplifier at a moderate price."
