THE DynavalveTM Power
amp Technology
Seasoned players know the deal: 100 tube- driven watts simply sound louder than 100 solid state-powered watts. The reason for this is that tube power amps’ complex dynamic properties enhance audio signals with transients. These added frequencies enrich the spectrum, making each note more concise, more explosive, and louder. Hence, signal content is decisive in determining the perceived volume, touch and response – the very “feel” of an amp.
Though tubes are influential, tube power amp circuits have a far more formative hand in shaping these audio phenomena. With this fact in mind, the engineers who masterminded the Quantum™ series created a 21st century original - the world’s first tubeless power amps with totally tube-driven response. A quantum leap in performance, the patent-applied- for Dynavalve™ technology delivers better tone, greater sound pressure and a mightier punch to satisfy even the most discerning bass player.
The Preamp Technology
Quantum™ amps’ inputs feature the Tube Touch Circuit™. Extraordinarily saturation-resistant, this circuit makes the amp remarkably responsive to the players’ touch.
Another wonderfully practical feature is the Tube Growl knob that serves to dial in sweet-and-soulful sounding compression and tube saturation effects. It sweeps smoothly from subtle to strident
– and all points in between.
Functionality of conventional serial EQs
Functionality of the parallel EQ
A breed of EQ otherwise found exclusively in high-end studio gear, the Pure Parallel EQ™ dramatically reduces undesirable filter effects, turning the four-band voicing section into an awesomely effective sound- sculpting tool. Tweaked specifically for the bass, it affords easy, intuitive handling and transcendent audio results.
