Description
SA10
In any amplifier, the signal path is at the mercy of anything that creates noise within the unit. Thus, we spare no expense in using only the most high-quality components, even if it means the cost of our power supplies overtaking that of everything else.
The result, of course, is worth every penny.
A singer’s sharp intake of breath before hitting the chorus, a guitarist’s fingers sliding against the strings – it’s those seemingly minor details that can bring music to life. Fish out one of your all-time favourite albums and play it through a Bluetooth speaker, and guess what? Its sounds like a Bluetooth speaker. Play it through the SA10, and it’s as close to hearing the artist’s performance as you’re likely to get. There’s always joy in digging out an old recording you haven’t heard in years. With the HDA range, it’ll feel like hearing it forthe first time.

Pathos Adrenalin
Pathos Adrenalin
The Adrenalin amplifier represents the point of arrival of the INPOL (“Inseguitore a Pompa Lineare” – Linear Pump Tracker) concept.
The essence of such an apparatus is that of a tube amplifier featuring a very sensitive and refined timbre, combined with a surprising and amazing output capacity.
It really seems that Pathos designers and technicians achieved their goal: an iron fist concealed in a velvet glove.
InPol (Inseguitore Pompa Linear – Linear Pump Follower) is a system patented by Pathos Acoustics which has enjoyed great success and won many awards.
Inpol devices have a special sonic personality obtainable only by means of this particular circuit design – fully balanced in Class A using a single solid-state component in follower configuration, with high current gain and with voltage gain together. The valve amplifier amplifies the input signal voltage and InPol supplies the current to drive the loudspeakers without any further amplification. In this way, the signal is entrusted to the valves and becomes a true copy of the original, with all the quality, purity and harmonic content of the original.
This technology allows an increase in the theoretical output in pure Class A of between 25% and 50% together with a low output impedance which is fundamental for the damping factor and further improved by the double InPol.

Hegel H20
The Hegel H20 incorporates the latest version of the Hegel FET-technology. A practical benefit of the H20 FET-technology is a more rhythmic sound. It is simply better at re-creating a bass line. Another vital element is the removal of harmonic echoes in the higher frequencies, which result in a lot more detail and still a smoother and more natural sound.
LINE MAGNETIC LM-845IA
LM-845IA – Integrated Amplifier – Single Ended 845 – 2x22W
The LM-845 is a quality upgrade of the old LM-518 amplifier. It delivers twenty-two watts per channel, Single Ended design, Pure Class A Integrated Stereo Amplifier with 845 output power tubes. The drivers are 6P3P tubes, the capacitors are Multicap, American MIT Coupling Capacitors, German MCAP Coupling Capacitors,
All tube Integrated with 12AX7 input tubes for voltage amplification, EL34 driver tubes, 5AR4 rectifier tubes and 845 output tubes. Driver tubes 6P3P can also be replaced by different kinds of driver tubes and you can select which tubes you prefer judging by different sounds. Well selected and matched tubes. No matter it is the Pre-stage or power stage of tubes we select and choose the best matching ones to use on the same unit of the amplifier to get the best sound quality out of it.
Different from other inputs Pre-In offers you a possibility to connect to some other Preamplifier so that you can the LM-845IA as a power amplifier.
User bias control has been used for bias adjustment and one meter has been added to the front plate to allow you to monitor bias with ease. External Hum Balance adjustment for sound adjustment.
Specially designed Toroid transformers made of Z11 Core for power supply and two Japanese Audio grade EI types of output transformers with wide bandwidth are applied. All transformers and chokes are encapsulated and installed separately on the amplifier to avoid and lower the disturbance between each other.
Hegel HD30 (EISA Award Winner)
The Hegel HD30 is the ultimate digital control centre. It does everything you can dream of, and does so with world-class quality. There is an abundance of inputs, ranging from balanced AES/EBU and BNC connectors, to Network and USB connections – with the latter also accepting DSD signals. The built-in volume attenuator allows you to connect directly to a power amplifier or a pair of active loudspeakers. Highly advanced power supplies and careful lay-out brings the noise floor down towards a mindblowing – 150dB. In
LINE MAGNETIC LM-805IA
LM-805IA – Integrated Amplifier – Single Ended 805 – 2x48W
The Line Magnetic 805iA uses single-ended triode 805 tubes and operate in pure Class A. It delivers 2x48W power. It has 3 unbalanced line inputs, 1 bypass input and 4, 8, 16Ω output groups. The rear-illuminated front panel meter is used to adjust the polarization of the tubes.
