2023- Production Resumes!

I’ve spent many years hand crafting custom amplifiers based on the venerable TPA3116D2 integrated circuit.   My goal has always been to use audiophile quality parts in the recipe and design that produces sound as close as one can get to a triode tube amplifier, but without the expense of tubes. 

My amplifiers are 20 watts into an 8 ohm load and 40 watts into a 4 ohm load.  I typically recommend one mates my amplifiers with an efficient speaker system.  If you have questions about compatibility, please feel free to email me.

I’m now taking orders for 2023.  Please email me if you are interested.
