There are very few modern designers in the audio
field who can claim as much as Tim de Paravicini.
No aspect of the recording and reproduction
chain has been left untouched, no aspect of
circuit design not further researched and
developed. As early as 1965 Tim was involved in
custom design work for rock and
roll bands; manufacturing his own
public address equipment, and
modifying existing studio
equipment to realise even
greater potential. Tim de Paravicini works by a simple premises: If he designs it, it must be a better design than anything else, or he will not manufacture it. His sole goal is taking audio to the furthest possible point of development. Current research is taking him further along this path than any single competitor.

EAR Acute III Valve CD Player with DAC
|
|
The CD player acute has true balanced outputs with a tube line amp using transformers. Peak level is 5 volts.
It also has a true analogue remote controlled volume, so that you can use it in a minimalist system to drive directly any power amp.
Only plays standard CD not SACD, accurate clean smooth sound more like vinyl

EAR HP4 Valve Headphone Amplifier
|
|
CLASS A TRIODE HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER
The EAR HP4 is one of the finest headphone amplifiers we have ever heard. Partner this fabulous valve amplifier with Grado's RS1 or their latest GS 1000 headphone. Headphone listening doesn't come much better than this! Goosebumbs supplied as standard!
Tim de Paravicini has long had a worldwide reputation for valve preamplifiers and power amplifiers. Now he has applied his expertise to produce what is arguably the world’s finest headphone amplifier aimed at the highest quality dynamic headphones.

EAR 8L6 Integrated Amplifier
|
|
Version of the 834 that can be used as an integrated amp or a power amp. No connection required between pre-out and amp-in jacks. 50 wpc into 4, 8, or 16 ohms. Uses 6L6, EL34, or KT66 output tubes. Self-biasing. Six line inputs and one tape output.

EAR 834T Hybrid Integrated Amplifier
|
|
The EAR 834T Hybrid Integrated Amplifier
EAR/Yoshino’s latest model, the 834T is the company’s first solid-state Hybrid Integrated amplifier. It draws both on the original all-valve 834 and the spectacular M100 transistor mono-block power amps, and in true EAR style breaks definitively with convention.
Backed by designer Tim de Paravicini’s unrivalled expertise in audio transformers, the 834T offers 100W of transformer-coupled MOSFET power per channel. A valve-like output configuration gives the noted virtues of valve sound together with bullet-proof stability and reliability not always associated with MOSFETs.

EAR 899 Integrated Amplifier
|
|
If ever an amplifier was all things to all men, the EAR 899 must be it. It takes as a starting point the recent EAR 890 power amplifier and builds on it with even greater flexibility of use.
The EAR 890 is itself a derivative of the famous EAR 834 integrated amp, offering a much increased output of 70W from the same chassis thanks to new output valves and detail circuit changes. The EAR 899 uses the same power amplifier topology as the EAR 890 but adds a six-input passive preamplifier in its own ‘loft apartment’. It is still possible to use the EAR 899 as a power amplifier, however, complete with true balanced inputs and the option of bridged or parallel mono operation to deliver 140W of Class A, making this one of the most easily upgraded amplifiers available.

EAR 869 Integrated Amplifier
|
|
There's nothing that can't be improved - and if anyone could improve the 859 it would of course have to be its original designer. Hence the 869: the basic output topology of the 859 with a slightly revised output transformer, plus a modified input stage with one extra small-signal valve. This has allowed a small but significant increase in output power to 15W per channel, and even better control of operating conditions irrespective of valve parameters (meaning better consistency as valves age or are replaced). In sound quality terms, this means, in essence, the same but better and more of it, for longer.

EAR V20 Integrated Amplifier
|
|
The V20 is the latest brain child of Tim de Paravicini; it is a completely new concept in valve amplifier design. Forget all other more conventional designs, the V20 is a totally “clean sheet of paper” design. The output valves are the indirectly heated ECC83 twin triode type, 10 per channel, operated in a parallel push pull class “A” circuit featuring Enhanced Triode Mode; as used in both the EAR859 Single Ended Triode Amplifier, and EAR 861 push pull triode amplifier. This circuit provides superb linearity, and very low distortion. In addition, the V20 uses Tim’s highly developed Balanced Bridge Mode ultra wide bandwidth output transformer, and no overall feedback.

EAR 88PB Valve Phono Amplifier
|
|
EAR 834P was one of the very first standalone phono stages and has become one of our best-selling products. Now the continuing popularity of vinyl has encouraged us to develop an upmarket phono preamp, the 88PB.
Drawing on designer Tim de Paravicini’s vast knowledge of audio electronics, and employing several of the innovations he incorporated in the class-leading The Paravicini 312 Control Centre, a fully-featured preamp and 324 phono stage (both solid state), the 88PB is a definitive statement in valve electronics.

EAR 324 Phono Pre Amplifier
|
|
The EAR 324 is the perfect solution for the vinyl-loving audiophile who demands the highest quality and the greatest flexibility. It features perfectly tailored inputs for both moving coil and moving magnet cartridges and offers accurate, low-noise amplification with vanishingly small signal degradation.
A fully transistorised product, it draws heavily on his acclaimed '312 Control Centre' preamplifier in its circuitry but adds flexibility with switchable input impedance for both moving coil (MC) and moving magnet (MM) cartridges. Two separate inputs allow easy switching between two turntables (or two arms on one turntable), ideal for the serious collector who may have a separate deck and pickup for mono discs.

EAR MC4 Step-Up Cartridge Transformer
|
|
Upgrade version of MC3. Same popular style of Chrome fascia and transformer pot, matching style of integrated/power amp of the EAR834, EAR859, V20, EAR861 and EAR890. Input impedances 3ohm, 6ohm, 12ohm, & 40ohm, voltage gain x30, x24, x18, x10. It will allow for the very best of "Moving Coil" cartridges.
An “Ideal Transformer” must by definition ‘transform one kind of energy to another without loss’ no more or no less ! We have achieved results for audio close to the ideal, for it will allow the very best of “Moving Coil” cartridges to extract the most possible information out of the groove. Most Active “Head Amps” have many flaws which inhibit the release of all the possible information out of the groove because the laws of economics and physics prohibits most designers from achieving the ideal, which is wide bandwidth minimal time distortion, minimum noise contribution, and maximum protection from external influences.
