Ikarus
Integrated Power Amplifier
 
Price:
$32,500
 
Product Features:

- Future proof design, 2 discrete replaceable modules
- Chassic machined from one solid block of aluminum
- Painstaking selection and matching by hand of all the components
- Bespoke hand-made production by one technician from start to finish
- Millitary-spec grade components. CNC machined & laser etched panels
- Over 300 in-house Master Tape concert recordings as our Reference
 

The IKARUS is based on our successful IRAKLIS power amplifier
design with an additional 10dB increase in overall gain.
It acts as both line stage and power amplifier stage with only 6dB of
negative feedback, eliminating an unnecessary amplifier circuit from
the signal path.

Sporting the same overall construction quality of sculptured massive
CNC machined aluminium case, highest quality connectors, milspec
double-sided oxygen-free copper PC Board, it is held together only
with stainless-steel alen bolts.

Using a complete dual mono approach in power supplies with
separate individual high-speed rectifier diodes with almost
40,000uF of filtering supplies.

A high quality [Grayhill] rotary switch and potentiometer [ALPS Blue
Velvet] are the only components the signal encounters on its way to
the ultra-high-speed amplifier circuits, allowing an incredible wealth
of fine musical nuance to pass directly through to the loudspeaker.
