Assistent 20

The Audio Valve Assistent 20s as its nickname Little Marvel indicates, is a great discovery and very much so in the field of analysis of the minuteness of detail sitting in every recording in the realm of music.It is striking how often, despite the advent of our modern day electronics, a sound is produced which almost always turns out to be less lyrical, less melodic as well as more monotonous and diffused.As its nominally rated power is limited, it is necessary to seek out loudspeaker enclosures to hook it up to which possess a pretty high efficiency and sensivity to ensure an accompaniment of complementary quality. As the types of valves used in the Assistent 20s are not very common, it is advisable to buy a replacement set if possible in advance even from the date of purchase of the amplifier.
