Custom wound audio transformers have German grain-oriented silicon steel cores (they have low loss, high permeability)." "The F360 is built with state-of-the-art components, including ALPS audio potentiometers, gold-plated RCA input and output sockets, custom-made polypropylene capacitors (for best dissipation factor (DF) and dielectric absorption (DA)), audio grade ESA Clarit圜aps, and HEXFRED diodes (for ultrafast, ultrasoft recovery). In the TNT Audio review they summed with: Unlike most tube equipment it can product a perfect square wave and uses zero negative feedback when the tone controls are off.
#BLACK ICE 8.5 UPGRADE#
Jim has used an upgrade to the classic Cascode circuit design and added a MOSFET to give the musical performance of tubes with the speed and detail of current solid state designs. And for those who want to go even further there is a set of outputs for rear stereo speakers.
