Ballad Audio's latest assault on the market leadership for
middle
range valve amplifiers. Introducing our newest development and second
flagship:
Ballad TA-B1MK3/FB with E34L, 6CA7, 6L6 or KT66 valves. Made in Germany
and partly manufactured in Berlin. With its designer look, this model
is the successor to our most successful model; the Ballad TA-B1. By
using marketing statistics and the feedback from hundreds of customers,
we have been able to improve upon this design. After many modifications
this model is heading towards perfection. The Ballad TA-B1 is an
example of push-pull valve switching using the simplest and the
shortest possible circuiting, inspired by well proven and well tested
audio principles. This is coupled with unbelievable audio results and
an almost impossible cost/ performance ratio. The short comings of the
EL34 valves have been overcome. Now you can have soulful valve tones
with optimal control throughout the complete audio spectrum. With the
Ballad TA-B1 a great many audio tones are possible and the available
output power is almost as high as with many KT88s.
