The Line Magnetic 805ia integrated amplifier uses single-ended triode 805 tubes operating in pure Class A, delivering 48 watts per channel. It features 3 unbalanced line inputs, 1 bypass input, and selectable 4, 8, and 16 ohm speaker outputs. The amplifier includes a rear-illuminated front panel meter for bias adjustment and uses high-quality components such as Mundorf N-Cap capacitors and an ALPS potentiometer, with extensive point-to-point wiring for reliability. The tube complement includes 1x 6SL7 and 2x 6SN7 for input stages, 2x 300B driver tubes, and 2x 805 power tubes. It has a frequency response of 10 Hz to 50 kHz (-1.5 dB), a signal-to-noise ratio of 87 dB (A-weighted), and a total harmonic distortion of 1% at 1 kHz. The amplifier also features a variable negative feedback control with four steps to tailor sound characteristics, soft start and time-delay circuits, and comes with a metal removable tube guard cage and infrared remote control. Dimensions are 430 x 275 x 415 mm, weight is 42 kg, and power consumption is approximately 400W. It is designed to drive a wide range of speakers with excellent musicality and dynamic soundstage.
