M80 Power Amplifier

Single-ended:

We learned at Canary that some people are fascinated by single-ended amplifiers. While our push-pull amplifiers have received positive reviews from many audiophiles, we didn’t want those single-ended enthusiasts to feel that Canary had rejected their tail feathers. We ultimately decided to build a pair of monolithic amplifiers around a 300B transistor in a single-ended circuit.

American technology:

In manufacturing the M80 monoblock modular power amplifier, we used the finest parts and components we could find. The design and assembly were executed and assembled according to the best traditions of American craftsmanship. Furthermore, the M80 features automatic biasing. No need to worry about biasing the amplifier. Listen to the M80 and experience the meaning of single-ended.

Special features:

Newly designed high-voltage power supply

Each channel uses an independent, choke-filtered high-voltage power supply.

Customized EI power transformers.

Exclusively manufactured Delrin 300B connector with gold-plated pin header.

Custom-made gold-plated terminals.
