The key to
building a truly magical amplifier is to maximise the dynamics in
the signal and minimise any corruption in the process of amplification.
Graham's designs are very concise, using the shortest possible signal
path.
The Tron
Discovery, rated conservatively at 8 watts, is constructed
with three carefully divided partitions to eliminate the disruptive
effect of magnetic, mechanical and electrical fields for the critical
aspects of the circuit.
The amplifier is
built around the famous 300B valve, has only three resistors in
the circuit and not one capacitor in the signal path.
All the
components are hard wired and of the highest quality available as
well as being oriented to limit interference. Most are specially made
to order like the strip wound C core transformers and chokes that
are all hand wound.
This guarantees
perfect pitch, tonal colour, timing and harmonic structure of the music,
where lesser components corrupt the signal.
All this combined
with the expert hand craftsmanship of a master of his trade (the
Discovery takes over 110 hours of skilled labour to construct)
brings you an amplifier like no other: incredible performance that will
last you a lifetime - the Tron Discovery.
