“…if you want to hear the important musical detail presented in a coherent, clear-cut fashion this pairing has remarkably little competition in the two box arena. There are a few integrated amps which give them a run for their money in one respect or another but nothing comes to mind which seems like a better overall package.” Jason Kennedy Hi Fi+ No75.

LM-150IA- Integrated Amplifier – Push Pull KT120 – 2x100W
Overview:
One hundred watts per channel, Class AB Integrated Stereo Amplifier with KT150 output power tubes, 12AX7, 12AU7 and 6SN7 input tubes. 12AX7, 12AU7 and 6SN7 are for three stages of signal amplification while KT150 for the power amplification.
Well selected and matched tubes. Tubes we chose are Shuguang 12AX7, Shuguang 12AU7, Electro Harmonix 6SN7 and Tung-sol KT150. 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-150IA as a power amplifier.
User bias control has been used for bias adjustment including 2 vu-meters.
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.

LINE MAGNETIC LM-211IA
LM-211IA- Integrated Amplifier – Push Pull EL34 – 2x32W
The Line Magnetic integrated amplifier LM-211IA is a push-pull amplifier with 4x EL34 tubes in Class AB amplification and delivers 2x15W in triode mode and 2x32W in ultra-linear mode. It has 4 balanced line inputs and 4/8Ω output groups.
The rear-illuminated front panel meter is used to adjust polarization of the tubes. The use of high-quality components (Realcap capacitors, ALPS potentiometer) wired in the air, for the most part, is the guarantee of exemplary reliability. Its transformers output are of EI type, specially designed for power supply. The LM-211IA delivers dynamic, rich and natural sound.
Pathos Inpol Remix MKII
Pathos Inpol Remix MKII – Integrated Amplifier
InPolRemix MkII is a fully-balanced pure Class A integrated amplifier using the latest generation double-InPol circuitry.
The digital bias/gain set technology with intelligent control is entrusted to the same microprocessor which regulates the volume, thus guaranteeing the performance of the amplifier itself and its ability to drive the loudspeakers efficiently.
Thanks to the (optional) HiDac Mk2 converter, music lovers who want the best from the latest digital sources will find their demands fully met.
InPol (Inseguitore Pompa Lineare – 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.
