Elekit TU-H82 Hybrid Tube Amplifier Kit
Ideal for the constructor with zero soldering skills but interested in the amplifier kit's mechanics. No soldering is required to make the TU-H82. The versatile stereo amplifier will accept a signal from a pair of RCA phono sockets, a 3.5mm jack and has an inbuild DAC so it can be connected easily to your computer. The output is through speaker posts, and the kit offers your headphones a 3.5mm jack output.
With an output of 6.5 Watts into an 8-ohm load, this is an excellent amplifier for your computer set-up or reasonably sensitive speakers in your main hi-fi set-up.
The TU-H82 offers the clear sound of a solid-state amp and the soothing warm sound of a tube amp.
Features:
- Hybrid of vacuum tube input buffer and a D-class amplifier section
- AB-class headphone amp built-in
- DC-controlled electronic volume built-in the amplifier IC. Therefore the volume deflection between right and left channels at small sound volume is minimized.
- Headphone output
- Built-in USB-DAC for computer connection via mini-USB connector
- Interlocking the amp power ON/OFF with the PC USB power selectable
- Assembly kit for users to experience the fun of DIY
PCB is preassembled. No soldering is required. For assembly, users will need long-nose pliers and a screwdriver only. (A hex wrench is included.)
