The fact that Bryce himself took the time to go over this for all of us really huminizes his company. I have nothing but respect for him and his brand. I can't wait to buy this when i get paid.

Awesome work. Love it. I champion your gear every day so my upcoming question isn't hating. Why did you put 2 Warm Audio logos on the front of the unit? One or the other would have been perfect, not both.

@aubyoung1218 9 ай бұрын

@legacyshredder1 Well, one on the left is more model number focused and one on the right is our official Warm logo. It was looking a little uneven with the right sign being completely blank so we tried to even it out it all. 😊

@waynegram8907 9 ай бұрын

WARM AUDIO, What is so special about the 270volts operating DC voltage on the plates of the tubes? why not use 350vdc or 500vdc. What is so special about the LUNDAHL transformer, what does it do differently compared to other audio transformers adding more odd or even harmonics or what?

@WarmAudioOfficial 9 ай бұрын

Hey Wayne! Voltage simply determines the maximum signal level that the compressor can handle without distorting. Lundahl transformers are known for their exceptional quality and help to improve the quality of your audio signal. Hope this helps!
