Albion Amplification Tct Series Tct35h 35W Tube Amp Head Black

The Albion TCT Series TCT35H 35W Tube Amp Head has 2 separate switchable channels, both featuring the same controls per channel. Channel A features the EQ circuit before the gain stages, whilst Channel B features the EQ after the gain stages.Both channels feature the capability of running (depending on control settings) from clean through crunch to high gain lead. But due to the different voicing provided by the EQ position (and other voicing elements), both channels have an entirely different spectral response and players feel.The player himself can choose which he prefers for his particular style and suitability.There is no fixed Clean or Lead channel that can be the limiting factor on other makes of multi channel guitar amplifiers. This flexibility sets the Albion TCT guitar amplifiers apart from other brands.The TCT35H amplifier circuit utilizes a combination of technologies to provide optimum performance required for high class consistent playing night after night.The preamplifier section uses 3 double triode low noise 7025/12AX7/ECC83 tubes with high speed relay switching for circuit reconfiguration when channel switching.The input gain itself is a very special proprietary circuit combining a 12AX7 preamp tube and a unique high voltage FET (field effect transistor). This circuit has many benefits that are not readily available with tube only designs, in that the input stage noise (particularly heater hum) is greatly reduced, first stage microphony is vastly reduced, input stage gain and drive capability is increased allowing it to drive the rest of the preamp better, and lastly it imparts a tonality approaching that of a pentode tube, which is good in its own right! All this means is that the input stage will perform better and more reliably by reducing the things you DONT want from a tube!A word about the EQ system used on the Albion TCT range of amps. Although the tone controls are based on the time honoured interactive passive system historically used on most guitar amps, our design is somewhat wider ran
