Silk Audio MC100SE Factory Upgraded Yaqin MC100B Tube Integrated Amp

Silk Audio MC-100SE

About the amp:

MC-100SE is a Silk Audio only factory upgrade to the base Yaqin MC100b.

If you are looking for a punchy tube amp with good power reserves, then look no further than the KT-88 based amplifiers. The MC-100B is essentially two KT-88B amps in one chassis, with its dual mono construction for maximum channel separation. User selectable Ultralinear and Triode modes and front panel power amplifier input mode makes this a very versatile amplifier.

The MC-100SE incorporates Solen audiophile capacitors in critical signal paths and additional bypassing in the power supply. The result is more details and transparency along with a more dynamic presentation.

Please let us know your preference of one of three color schemes (Black, Silver or Gold).

Other highlights:

· SRPP input, long-tailed phase splitting driver and cathode output configuration

· Dual mono construction, each channel with its own power supply transformer

· Selectable Ultra Linear and Triode operating modes for output stage

· Solen audiophile caps in critical signal paths and audiophile electrolytic capacitors and precision metal film resistors used throughout
