August 2, 2001
METASONIX announced the availability of the TM-4 stereo vacuum-tube
amplifier, that they claim to be the smallest tube amplifier ever
offered to the public.
The TM-4 produces about 1 watt per channel peak power, enough to drive
either headphones or high-efficiency speakers. Adapters and speaker cables
are included to allow its use with consumer-audio or professional equipment.
And it can even be rackmounted using the optional TM-M kit and appropriate
rails. It fits right into an MOTM modular synthesizer or into any modular
cabinet having a 5U-high standard size. (Unlike every other tube amplifier
ever made.)
The TM-4 uses one 6BM8 tube per channel. The tubes
are completely enclosed in the cabinet, making it safe to use around small
children or pets. The round window displays the 6BM8 tubes, showing them in
operation.
Specifications:
- Power output: approx. 1 watt peak into 8 ohms per channel at 5% distortion.
-
Max input sensitivity 0.2 volts for full power output.
-
Frequency response +-3dB, 70 Hz to 35 kHz.
-
Power input 10v AC to 12v AC, 50/60 Hz 1 amp at idle--derived from an
appropriate plug-in AC adapter. Use of an AC adapter to suit local AC mains power allows use of the TM-4 anywhere in the world.
-
Inputs: separate phone jacks for audio; unit includes RCA-to-phone adapters.
-
Outputs: two headphone jacks, 1/8" and 1/4" phone, plus separate phone jacks
for each speaker output.
- Dimensions: 7 1/2" (192mm) x 4 3/8" (112mm) x 3" (77mm).
-
Weight not including accessories approx. 5 pounds (2.2 kg).
The TM-4 is hand-made in the USA and carries a 90-day unlimited warranty.
