Exclamé 100 Integrated Stereo Amplifier
If you are looking for an entry-level hybrid valve amplifier, look no further than Exclamé. Exclamé 100 is the logical final model in the Exclamé series of amplifiers which has proven so successful for Valve Audio. Still utilising only one triode, in this execution of this plucky little amplifier, the valve is plate loaded directly by a dual pair of MOSFETs per channel. The power supply has also been redesigned around a new 300 VA toroidal transformer and Valve Audio's High Yield Rectification (HYR), and splits power rails to both channels. This greatly enhances the dynamic capabilities of the amplifier while retaining the original design aim of presenting the audio signal with the ultimate shortest path of least manipulation.
With its near zero noise floor, this amplifier has the ability to extract micro detail and present it with absolute honesty, whilst now the added dynamics made possible by the dual output devices as well as the greatly improved power supply capability adds more weight and credibility to a performance which never was shy on the previous models in the range. The sheer musicality, impetus, and absolute control of this amplifier easily surpass that of other designs competing for the crown of "budget" esoterica.
