Morrow Audio 300B1 Monoblock Amplifiers

Product Description & Design:

I know! 6 to 8 week wait? Audiophiles want it now! These things are meticulously hand made to order, like a fine work of art...for the ears! The thing you must realize is that we are talking about the best 300B amplifier in the world. This is one that you will never sell, one that you will have for a lifetime (and it is designed so to keep working for a lifetime).

By nature audiophiles buy something to only later sell it. This is a keeper! Once you hear it, you will never sell it. You will keep it for the rest of your life! So, considering all the time you waste, searching for the perfect amplifier. 6 to 8 weeks is not a long wait for one that you will keep. Consider it carefully... Resist the impulse to buy something you can have now. You will eventually end up with a Morrow Audio. This time, end the search...forever!

 

"If you can be patient and wait the 8 weeks or so that it takes Mike Morrow to build these beauties, you will have amplifiers that you will keep a lifetime. They are that good!"

 

One thing noted by our customers is that the sound of the Morrow Audio amplifiers are unlike any other 300B SET that they have ever heard or experienced. 300B SET's are known to have slow bass, rolled off highs, slight hum and noise, but yet a wonderful presence. The Morrow Audio SET's, due to the design, parts selection and wiring methods of Mike Morrow, exhibit fast bass, extended highs and a silence never before known in the 300B SET world. One customer said that it was like listening to a powerful push pull amplifier yet with the presence and realness that 300B's are known for.

 

The Morrow Audio 300B1 Monoblocks incorporate one of the best output transformers available (Electra-Print) as well as Teflon V-Cap capacitors. The V-Cap is the best  sounding capacitor in the world.

 

"One night I played Brahms cello sonata, Yo Yo Ma on vinyl. VERY rich, deep cello tones, much more authority than the px25 amp I've been listening to for a couple of weeks. Then I just listened, very beautiful, gripping, DETAILED, I love it. There is something unique."

 

Other components incorporated in the design are high quality tube sockets, oil power supply capacitors, Electra-Print output transformers, point-to-point wiring, teflon V-Cap capacitors, Solan & Black Gate cathode capacitors, Tantalum and other high quality, low noise resistors (All signal passing resistors are Tantalum). Wiring is solid silver and silver-coated copper with Teflon insulation. Special star grounding methods are used for low hum and noise.

 

The cabinet incorporates a heavy gauge steel top plate painted black with a Cherry Mahogany stained wood base. Thick, solid granite is used for the face plate. The whole provides an impressive and elegant appearance.

 

"OK OK, I know its a little gushy, but these things ROCK!!  And I don't even listen to rock, mostly a classical nerd with nice female vocalists thrown in at times.  Nothing like a little Diana Krall on a rainy day."

 

The Sound:

The amplifiers are very fast and musical, non-electronic and natural sounding with a deep, layered soundstage, along with a razor sharp 3-D image. I am amazed at how real things sound, breathtakingly 3D. Singers seem to be in the room. The soundstage is huge with images floating behind, in front of and outside the speakers. Every subtlety comes through, cueing the brain with locations of the instruments and singers. Read testimonials...

 

"The Morrow 300B1 amps are large, but there is a good reason for that.  The electromagnetic fields don't interact, and the delicate input circuit is as far from the power supply as possible.  The amp is visually very beautiful, with a slight industrial edge to it, with all the screw caps on the top plate showing.  VERY nice build quality, just screams excellence."
