GLIM M-40S Push-pull triode mono-block

The GLIM M-40S is a 40 W Class A power amplifier and features completely symmetrical circuit using nothing but triodes without overall feedback. A low distortion and detailed sound is achieved by using only three amplifying stages, specially designed output power transformer, silvered wiring and quality components. A rigid chassis and wooden frame can be made according to the wishes of the customer. In the model displayed, a mahogany frame and black, powder paint coated chassis plate have been used.

The GLIM M-40S is a wide bandwidth balanced audio power amplifier with excellent performance characteristic. Four selected 6080 military specified double triodes have been used in the power stage to amplify the signal for the output transformer with symmetrical and sectional design. The driver stage is operating with high supply voltage to be able to generate high voltage undistorted signal peaks to the power tube grids. Additionally, cross coupled input and phase inverter stage is self balancing and the input signal for the following symmetrical stages is maintained optimal.

The complete circuit is without overall feedback and therefore responds rapidly to transients and peak signals without the usual damping or softening effects on the sound. With careful design and optimum selection of tube operating points and tube loads the frequency response is from 12 Hz...48 kHz (-1 dB) without significant phase and harmonic distortion.
