Single Ended Mono Block Triode Ceramic Tube Power Amplifier

Generator CT

Generator CT (Ver. 3 was released 07.25. - linear field output transformer applied) is a new mono power amplifier made by NAT, based on military grade triode ceramic tube in pure class A with single - ended mode and zero global feedback operation.Unit is realized with SINGLE output power triode tube!

Single Ended Mono Block Triode Ceramic Tube Power Amplifier

Main facts:

  • One of the (if not) first high power coaxial triode cermic tube zero global feedback pure single-ended (realized with SINGLE triode tube) power amplifier.
  • One of the (if not) most compact in the class of 100W single-ended (19"x19"x8.7").
  • One of the (if not) most efficiency unit in the class (270W of power consumption for up to 100Wof tube single-ended pure class A output).

Generator CT gives an opportunity for listening the sound (music) with two different mode - as high power output setting up to 100W or moderate power output setting up to 40W. With power up to 100W in single - ended configuration there is a capability to drive almost any type of modern designed loudspeaker.

Military grade and N.O.S. (New Old Stock) GI-7B - output triode tube - represent high technology in vacuum tube manufacturing as coaxial ceramic based device. The anode is machined from pure solid copper - to insure best audio performance. Potential of output tube reach 350W of heat dissipation. Generator CT is used with not more than 60% of max. tube dissipation - that significantly decrease working temperature point for further improvement of reliability. Ceramic based transmitting tube construction gives an opportunity for ruggedness and freedom from microphonics. Special designed coaxial ceramic based tube has much lower mechanical impact than the standard - glass type of tube!

Tube that is used in Generator CT for driver purpose is 6S31B-V - SUPER tiny triode - made as long life tube and used as N.O.S. (New Old Stock) device.

High power of 600W, wide-bandwidth output transformer (custom designed by NAT) is used in Generator CT. Bandwidth reach 8Hz-70.000Hz. It is exceptional good flatness for single - ended zero global feedback type of amplifier. Output taps for 4 and 8 ohms speaker load are realized with highest quality laboratory grade connectors.

NOTE: Generator CT may drive almost any load from 2 ohms to over 16 ohms. Zero global feedback concept is the best known solution for purity of the sound reproduction. Generator CT may drive all type of speakers (electrostatic, magnetostatic, dynamic or other types).

Power supply section participate in sound quality almost as amplifiers main circuit. Silent power supply units is designed for double the power than Generator CT consume. There is separate voltage regulators in zero feedback manner for all amplifiers stages including the filaments (heaters). Polypropylene (MKP) type of capacitors is used in power supply, 0.1% resistors, electrolytic capacitors for 105C of operating temperature, last generation of semiconductors, laboratory grade connectors, silver-ofc internal wiring, etc..

Generator CT work properly at worldwide AC line voltage from 100 - 250 VAC, 50-60Hz (different voltages set in factory only).

NOTE:

- Standard version is used pseudo-balanced input (pin-3 connected to pin-1)

- First step of upgrade : pure-balanced input realized with hand coiled nano-crystalline core transformer
