Hibachi amps are built with discrete transistors. A class A/B design with a
twist - near zero feedback is finally achieved in a solid state design with
sideline out of audio path DC nullification circuitry. This new feedback
technology reveals recorded harmonic information like tubes. Each balanced pair
stage is directly wired without coupling caps for outstanding perfect phase
clarity. An enormous high current 8-pound hum free pure copper toroidal power
transformer feeds an extra large filter cap bank to promote high speed bass
current capability. Hibachi amps reveal ear pleasing tube amp 2nd order harmonic
content other solid state amps by design can not play. 205 Watts with 4-Ohm
speakers, 180W with 8-Ohm speakers. This powerhouse pair is made to deliver the
best possible sound from speakers rated above 85db/1-Watt. 2-Ohm to 24-Ohm
impedance, efficient horns to low impedance fluctuating electrostatic panels are
a great match. Beautiful deep clear coat piano black enclosures have removable
rubber isolation feet. Place on the floor near speakers or in your audio rack,
horizontal or vertical. They run warm to the touch, make sure the cooling fins
have access open air space - cranked up cooling fins will become hot to the
touch but not sizzling hot. Have it all: Bass kicking solid state with live in
the room high definition midrange imagery. Over 350 pairs are plugged in and
singing around the country. A very satisfying ear pleasing pair of amps with a
proven track record. Perhaps the best sounding pair of solid state mono blocks
you can buy. Google TAD 125 and read the reviews for yourself, you'll find many people are very pleased with these amps.

holder on H2SE) Supplied with 4-Amp speaker fuses for 200W rated speakers,
Use 3-Amp speaker fuses to protect <200W speakers
17 Pounds Each Block
13-1/2" x 11" x 9" Tall to top of binding posts
Giant toroidal high current 8-pound power transformer with vacuum tube line
filter and huge film bypassed filter cap array
Self test power up: Red light speaker stays disconnected for 2-seconds then
relay clicks to Green light
Draws very light current idling silent (12-watts), <1mV ripple hum, for
convenience can be left on - read next line
A Power Conditioner with relay disconnect surge protection is highly
recommended to protect your valuable audio equipment
Large WBT Style gold 5-way speaker wire binding posts accept all raw wire
gauges, large spades and banana plugs
Versatile high quality 4-Way Solid Nickel RCA Input jacks (Single Gold
RCA on H2SE - no extra jacks): Use one RCA for the normal mono block input.
Extra Jacks have many purposes. You can combine L & R preamp signals on the
amplifier using 2 RCA jacks to make a Mono center speaker amplifier. Has 2 more
RCA jacks to easily daisy chain connect another amp for bi-amp capable speakers.
Can use the extra jacks for Home Theater: Connect your HT processor front L-R
and your 2-chan music preamp L-R outputs to each amplifier at the same time -
has a unique TAD designed isolation network on the RCA jacks. Extra RCA jacks
are ideal for connecting signal to a powered subwooferÂ
