Description
Canor Virtus I2
The Canor Virtus I2 is a high-performance audiophile integrated tube amplifier, precision hand-built in Slovakia to precise standards. The level of workmanship needs to be seen to be believed beautifully designed and built to precision standards.
The Virtus I2 is a new-generation tube amplifier that utilises KT88 high-power tubes and features an entirely new topology. The goal of its development was to enhance the superior sound quality of the previous model version. This amplifier runs in a pure class A with an auto-bias function, as well as cathode feedback.
Product features
- an integrated tube amplifier operating in class A, providing an output power of 2 x 40 W
- KT88 high-power tubes with autobias with a cathode feedback
- an option to switch between triode and ultra-linear mode instantly
- PCBs utilise our premium CMT ™ technology
- perfect channel separation using a relay attenuator that features individual blocks for each channel. The gain control is in increments of 1 dB and attenuates up to 63 dB
- the independently powered control part
- capacitors with high capacitance in the filter provide energy for precise and well-defined bass
- the signal path exclusively contains high-quality polypropylene capacitors
- precise selection and pairing of the tubes meet above-average parameters
- the synchronous control option allows the use of two amplifiers in a monoblock mode without the need for an extra pre-amplifier. This Master/Slave mode has an output power of 80 W per channel
