Audio Note (UK) Jinro Shochu stereo power amplifier is a pure Class A, single-ended tube amplifier utilizing the highly acclaimed 211 triode; its performance level far surpasses that of the vast majority of contemporary designs.
JINRO Shochu shares its circuit design with the legendary ONGAKU Kensei and TOMEI Kensei amplifiers, utilizing copper—rather than silver or silver/copper—for all transformer windings to deliver a performance that is both unique and captivating.
Level 3 components are used throughout, including Audio Note (UK)™ copper foil capacitors and in-house designed and manufactured copper-wired output transformers.
It is designed specifically for sonic performance rather than technical specifications and meets all Audio Note (UK) Level 3 standards:—
