Opera Consonance Ref 8.8 Hi-End Integrated Valve Amplifier



50wpc With Remote Control.



UK Supplied RRP £1,995 (not a grey import)



This amp was supplied in 2005 by the Offical UK distributor for Opera Consonance



The speaker outputs can be configured to operate in either 4 or 8 ohm, this couple with the high power output will enable this wonderful amplifier to drive even the most demanding speakers with ease. Built with Massive transformers giving a total weight of 30kg.



One of the nice things about this amplifier is the heat output, there isn't any, well when I say any that's compared to most tube amps with throw out enough heat to power a small country. Compare to most tube amps this is a veritable ice cube.
