A pure, single-ended class A design that utilizes a new "Adaptive Transformer Technology" that allows for the use of one or two power tubes at the same time. Therefore, operating power is rated from 5 watts to 35 watts; and at 5 watts, it's a REAL 5 watts, not some squashed approximation of 5 watts. The Regal II is designed around a custom bifilar output transformer that is essentially two discrete transformers driving a common speaker load. This allows for the use of any combination of common 8 pin power tubes - from a single 6V6 delivering 5 watts of pure class A power, to two EL-34's for 35 watts. And because each tube is relating to its own independent transformer winding and bias resistor, any combination of different tubes types can be auditioned. Whether it be a single 6V6 or 6L6GC or a combination of the two (yes that's right, a 6V6 and a 6L6GC at the same time) the Regal II never needs biasing or adjustments when changing tubes. This versatility is also extended to rectifier tubes; the Regal II can accept any common 5 Volt rectifier including 5Y3, 5V4, 5U4, and 5AR4 with no adjustments nessessary. Each Victoria amp is hand wired on vulcanized fiber eyelet board, insuring durability! All wiring is solid core, like the original (as opposed to stranded wire) - essential for the characteristic, woody tone. CGE pots - totally noiseless w/smooth taper for ease of dialing-in-sound. Finger jointed solid pine cabinet, strong, durable, no cabinet buzz w/great resonance, lacquered Cotton Tweed, great looking and the exact material used for the original tweeds. Hand wound, paper interleaved output-transformers w/period correct voltages - no cold, harsh, high plate voltages and center tapped filament - no heater hum! 16 gauge triple plated steel Chassis! Output transformers are manufactured using the actual Triad engineering data hand wound, paper interleaved on paper bobbins rich harmonics - astounding tone built to last forever tremendous bottom end, singing highs, strong headroom! Allen Bradley carbon composition resistors individually measured before wiring to insure exacting tolerance w/low noise, extreme reliability, warm sound - unlike metal or carbon film resistors! Sprague Electrolytics capacitors - preformed for stability w/custom made coupling & decoupling caps - highest quality and durability - manufactured to our precise specifications to simulate the frequency response of the originals! Key ingredient to the vintage tone - modern polypropylene film caps sound too bright! Every tube is Electronically and sonically matched for high reliability, great tone, superior quality, high output - low noise! Each speaker is thoroughly sound tested with a 24 hour break in period for maximum reliability
