Design & Quality:
These amplifiers have been thoughtfully engineered and meticulously hand assembled in Canada with strict quality checks done throughout the entire process.  This amplifier is a non-adjustable Fixed Bias, Push-Pull, Ultra-Linear, Class AB design.  Comprehensive engineering tests are performed and a test report is filled out for every unit during the burn-in period to ensure proper performance.  For those interested, a copy of this test report is available.  You can see more photos here: http://www.idealinnovations.biz/gallery15.htm.  This amp can be driven directly from a CD player with excellent results, eliminating the need for a preamp.  Nearly any good quality preamp, solid state or tube will also work well with this amp.  We WOULD NOT sell anyone an amplifier that didn't perform to our high standards during listening tests.  Our name is on these and we want them to be right for decades.

Features:
Power Output Tubes - 6AV5GA - A very well manufactured tube, made in the USA, by Sylvania in Emporium, Pennsylvania in 1984.  They are a very robust design with cathodes as large as a KT88’s. Originally made for demanding military applications, these tubes are ideal in the right audio circuit and provide unrivalled sonic performance, at least in our opinion, and we believe yours too once you listen with this amp.
Driver Tubes - 12AX7WA/7025 made by Sovtek.
Controls - AC Power Switch, and two Level Controls.
Connectors – Power: IEC320 Inlet, Input: nickel plated RCA, Output: Binding Posts on ¾” centers.  A 6 foot detachable IEC power cord is included.
Circuit Protection – There are 9 internal circuit protection devices to ensure safe operation.
Documentation – This amplifier comes with a comprehensive owner’s manual.

Components:
Transformers –  All three, 1 power and 2 output are Canadian made to Ideal Innovation’s specifications and have been Hi-Pot tested at 1500 volts.  The output transformers use M6 laminations and have screen taps at 43%.  The power transformer and all AC components are UL & CSA approved.
Chassis –  All custom made heavy gauge sheet metal finished in black textured powder coat for maximum durability and good appearance.
Small Components –  Resistors are all ceramic flameproof and rated at 1 watt or more regardless of actual load and capacitors are all high quality for long life.  Level control potentiometers are full size, not those little cheapies that wear out after a while. All tube sockets are ceramic with good quality pin sockets.
Serviceability –  Should the situation ever arise, this amplifier can be repaired in minutes, not hours.  Take a look in the photos and you’ll see a high quality PC Board that is made of an electrically rated 0.062" thick fiberglass with 2 ounce copper cladding.  This Circuit Board is easily accessed from both sides and has no hot tube sockets mounted to it like many other brands.  Instead everything is hand wired to the PC board.  We would like to think we did our homework here too.
