The production of the product will shortly be suspended. However, we already design the successor!

GLIM S-5 stereo integrated amplifier

The new version with triode connected power tube! The GLIM S-5 stereo integrated amplifier is capable of supplying realistic sound space and lifelike dynamics. Together with medium impedance dynamic speakers it is an ideal solution for a demanding instrumental music listener at home.

The GLIM S-5 model features a matched pair of new TESLA KT88 / 6550 vacuum tubes, ceramic tube sockets, point to point wiring, single ground point, silver plated copper signal wiring with teflon insulation and golden input connectors of quality manufacture. Substantial electrolytic capacitors for high temperature operation are used inside the amplifier frame, which are bypassed with film capacitors to ensure good power supply voltage filtration over wide frequency range. The model S-5 is triode connected in Class A with no feedback.

The GLIM S-5 is supplied with separate power supply, equipped with high inductance DC filter chokes separately for each voltage and vacuum tube rectified voltage output for the amplifier power tube screen and driver stage. The separate power supply isolates the hum source away from the main amplifier and regulated voltages keeps the operating points of the tubes always optimal even for different tube replacements and during ageing of the tubes.

Classic appearance is finalised with massive teak frame and multi layer antique teak oil surface treatment. It is recommended to repeat the treatment annually (remember to study the precautions and instructions for teak oil handling).
