MA 900
Selected and burnt-in ECC 81 tubes:
Reliable and particularly low-noise.
FULL-POWER
PERFORMANCE –
WATTS X
While the selected and burned-in ECC 81
high-end tubes take care of amplifying the
fine input signals and generate the inimitable
tube sound, the power transistors ensure
a solid continuous output of 200 watts of
sine power per channel. The pulse power
produced is an impressive 320 watts.
TRADITION MEETS
MODERNITY
The combination of melodious tubes in the
preamplifier unit together with powerful
transistors turns the MA 900 into a hybrid
amplifier; a product category that is rare
but has a long tradition at Magnat.
The tubes, which have already been burnedin for a perfect sound, are selected prior to
assembly to ensure that a pair with perfectly
compatible values is used.
A LOOKTHAT WILL
LAST FOREVER
All of this is packed in a sturdy metal housing
with a front panel and operating elements
that are made of solid aluminum. Every touch
is a pleasure. In addition, the unique concept
of the MA 900 is visually emphasized by the
individually selected designations lighting up
in the clear dual line display on one side of the
unit when selecting the input, and the tubes
emitting their so glow on the other.
