Pharaoh II Integrated Amplifier
When we began development of the Pharaoh amplifier, we had
one overarching goal: The realization of an integrated amplifier that, without
compromise, would offer the performance of the finest separates. The new
Pharaoh II pushes that performance to an even higher. A new amplifier circuit
designed around the Hypex N-core amplifier modules increases both power and
performance. The preamplifier includes numerous upgrades as well as an improved
phono section and an all-new hybrid headphone amplifier. The Pharaoh II
uniquely combines solid state power amplification with tube preamplification to
deliver amazing dynamics as well as the organic midrange and sweet top end that
only a tube amp can provide. Along with truly outstanding sonics the Pharaoh II
boasts numerous features including a tube/MOSFET headphone circuit, mm/mc user
adjustable phono, home theater bypass, remote controlled volume with mute, and
a processor loop. The Pharaoh II is truly a “one box” solution to all
of your amplifier needs.
From a technical standpoint, the all-important preamplifier
section utilizes a pair of long plate 12AU7 tubes configured in a mu-follower
topology. Large coupling caps and a host of exotic parts ensure that the audio signal
is preserved perfectly during this critical stage of amplification. A huge
linear power supply is then used to deliver energy to the solid-state power
amplifier section. Designed around the highly regarded Hypex N-CORE OEM
modules, the amplifiers provide seemingly unlimited power and dynamics.
It’s Good to Be King….
