S.A.Lab Samson
We created our amplifying set S.A.Lab from the very ground up. Regarding schematics, technology and incredible sound Samson stands very close to our phenomenal Hercules. New Samson combines powerful and explosive dynamic with quality of sheer musical intellectual. The amplifiers are recognized by audiophiles in the whole world.
It took 1,5 years from us to develop Samson preamplifier and power amplifiers. Samson is push-pull design with Russian 6п36с output tube. There are 6 tubes in ultralinear operating mode in monoblock. Cascode driver scheme is based on Russian 6ж4 (6SA7) as a triode.
Samson’s output transformers are refined those of Hercules and have the same power.
Monoblock’s power supply includes separated transformers for output tubes’ anodes (600 W), tubes heating (400 W) and driver stage (400 W). Power supplying of tubes’ grids and driver stages is regulated.
Samson preamplifier has Russian 6п9 and eight balanced transformer in total: four input and four output transformers. Relay switched ladder volume control is realized on tantalus resistors.
We decorate Samson’s face plates and chassis with luxurious Ferrari paints (many colors for choice).
