AMP IV is a Pure Class A Amplifier coupled with a High Quality Pre-amplifier using our in house designed and in house made stepped attenuator volume control.
The Directly Heated 2A3 Triodes at the output are well known for their linear & full bodied sound signature. They are driven by 6SN7 valves to produce the classic energetic & emotionally involving sound.
AMP IV is not only extremely musical but also powerful and in the same time refined sounding Integrated Amplifier.

SW1X Audio Design® Range of Integrated Amplifiers
All of our Integrated Amplifiers are Pure Class A Valve Amplification with Zero NFB and most of them are Single Ended, producing therefore super Quality 2-8 Watts of power, which sound like 20-80 Watts when paired with with High Sensitivity Speakers (min 96dB/W/1m is recommended), where damping and dynamic delivery feels like 200-800 W
Being Valve amplifiers operated in Pure Class A, Single Ended mode without any kind of feedback, the circuit design is as elegantly simple as it can get.
Therefore, the quality of amplification is almost entirely dependent on the factor of Quality of Materials & Componets employed in the circuit design.
All our Integrated Amplifiers are offered in 4 versions:
- STD, all Copper wound, orient grain M6 EI Core OPTs
- Special, all Copper wound Super HiB DC Core OPTs
- Classic, Copper/Silver Windings, Super HiB DC Core OPTs
