Pathos Acoustics. I have the Classic One MKIII and love it. Upscale Audio is the US distributor and great folks to do business with. https://upscaleaudio.com/collections/pathos Had a Raven Blackhawk and had issues from the start. Have Raven CeLest Speakers and they work great with the Pathos. |
Van Alstine makes FET Hybrids! https://avahifi.com/collections/hybrid-power-amplifiers/products/fet-valve-400r-hybrid-amplifier Croft does too! https://www.bluebirdmusic.com/sections/croft-models.html |
New York Audio Labs (NYAL) made three excellent hybrid tube/MOSFET amps back around 1990. The Moscodes 150, 300 and 600. 75, 150 and 300 wpc. Designed by George Kaye and built in NY State. I have the Moscode 150. They differ in the number of output devices used. There is a review of the Moscode 300 in the Stereophile archives. It made the cover of that issue and got a favorable test by Atkinson. All the models use 2 input tubes per channel: a 12BH7 and a 12CG7/FQ7. I recommend buying one of these over any more recent ones! |
Lamm Industries M1.2 Reference monoblocks are a pure class A hybrid design and have been an industry benchmark for a decade. Ypsilon’s Aelius II also comes to mind. Heads up that I’m a Lamm Industries dealer. Cheers, Colin https://gestalt.audio |
