The Rogers High Fidelity 65V-1 integrated amplifier is a Class A, single-ended design offering 25 watts per channel at clipping with 10% THD. It uses a pair of EL-34 or KT-88 power tubes with selectable triode and ultra-linear modes. The amplifier features a toroidal power supply, separate low noise DC tube filament power supply, and point-to-point Teflon wiring with military specification components for superior sound quality and durability. It includes a dedicated headphone output circuit and supports Bluetooth control via an iOS app that displays output levels and allows switching between inputs and operating modes. The chassis is aviation grade and made in the USA, with a lifetime transferable warranty. The unit weighs 24 lbs and measures 17" width, 12" depth, and 7.5" height. It is designed for high efficiency/sensitive speakers and offers a modern user experience combined with traditional tube amplifier craftsmanship.
