The Second Opus in the JUNONE Series, Bringing Sonic Perfection Within Reach
Triode is proud to present its latest creation, the "JUNONE 845S" integrated amplifier, the culmination of the expertise and passion of Junichi Yamazaki, the brand's founder.
Following in the footsteps of the "Reference One" model, a benchmark in preamplification, the JUNONE 845S represents a constant quest for the ideal sound, while remaining accessible to audiophiles.
The amplifier incorporates a triode configuration in all stages, using 12AX7, 12AT7, 300B and 845 tubes for a power of 22W per channel.
The combination of a 300B tube in the driver stage and an 845 in the output stage, usually reserved for high-end models, offers a unique richness and depth of sound.
Compact and elegant design
Despite the use of imposing tubes, the JUNONE 845S stands out for its compact size, the result of Triode's ingenuity and experience in the design of tube amplifiers.
Its refined design, with its visible tubes and luxurious finishes, will make it the centerpiece of your audio system.
Affordable price for exceptional performance
Priced at 14990 euros, the JUNONE 845S offers exceptional value for money, making it accessible to music lovers looking for an authentic and refined listening experience.
Authentic and Powerful Power Supply
The power supply of this device is a true masterpiece, featuring a massive transformer for optimal performance. A custom-made Nippon Chemi-Con electrolytic capacitor ensures a stable 1000V plate voltage for the 845 tube, guaranteeing a sound of great purity.
Custom-Designed 845 Socket
The 845 socket has also been custom-designed for better connection and durability. Unlike standard 845 sockets that use springs and can generate resonances at high volumes, the custom socket on this device uses a gold-plated tapered pin that securely fixes the 845 tube. This allows you to enjoy a listening experience without any fear, even at high voltages.
Bias Adjustment
The 845 tube operates with a fixed bias, which means you will need to adjust it when replacing the tube. The process is simple and intuitive:
This device can also be used as a stereo power amplifier. To do this, simply:
This allows you to enjoy the power and sound quality of this device with your existing stereo audio system.
In summary, this device offers:
Sound reproduction of great purity and depth
Transparency and precision
The first thing that strikes you when listening is the clarity and precision of the soundstage. The sound is of great transparency, without any mechanical or electrical distortion, even at high listening levels. This absence of coloration allows you to fully enjoy the richness and depth of the music.
Rich and detailed sound image
The sound image is wide and deep, with great precision in the placement of instruments. The timbres are reproduced with great fidelity, which allows you to easily distinguish between the different instruments and voices.
Exceptional bass extension
One of the strengths of this device is the extension of the low frequencies. They are deep and powerful, without any feeling of heaviness or bloat. This quality is particularly appreciated on pieces of music with a strong bass presence, such as jazz or electronic music.
A natural and realistic sound
In summary, the sound of this device is of great naturalness and realism. It is both precise and warm, with a great richness of detail and exceptional depth. It is a real pleasure to listen to music with this device, which faithfully reproduces all the nuances of the recording.
The amplifier is not a mere spectator of the music. It moderately engages itself in the performance, breathing a vibrant energy that captivates the listener from the very first minutes. The warm-up is quick, and in about 15 minutes, the amplifier reaches its full potential, offering an immersive musical experience.
The speaker driving capability is exceptional. The output transformer, a key element of the amplifier, cancels out the back electromotive force of the speakers, allowing for precise and powerful sound reproduction.
Listening to "GETZ/GILBERTO" by Antonio Carlos Jobim reveals a particular silence. This silence is perceptible at both low and high volumes. The sound rise is fast and the soundstage is precise, allowing each instrument and the contribution of Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto to be clearly distinguished. The harmonies are limpid and sublime, while the rhythm section stands out for its exceptional clarity.
The album "Songs for Distinguished Lovers" by Billie Holiday highlights the singer's clear and warm voice. The amplifier sensitively reproduces the nuances of her expression, capturing the transformation of her delicate timbre into a haunting intensity on the title "A Foggy Day". The background noise resolution is also remarkable, inviting the listener to immerse themselves in the harmonies and Billie's captivating voice.
Listening to "Oxygène" by Jean Michel Jarre reveals a striking depth. The precision of the amplifier allows us to pierce through the complexity of the album, revealing the essence of the music. Unlike multi-element amplifiers that can produce beautiful sound but mask the depth of albums, the simplicity of this unique amplifier lends itself perfectly to exploring the complex writing style of electronic music.
Finally, listening to "The Dark Side of the Moon" by Pink Floyd is an extraordinary experience.
Total immersion:
Listening to this album is a true immersion into the musical universe of Pink Floyd. The arrangement of the transitions on the two wings of the stage creates a stereo effect of remarkable finesse, which envelops the listener and transports them to the heart of the work.
Sublimation of a masterpiece:
The remastering work has sublimated this mythical album. The precision and unity of the sound bring out all the power and emotion of the music. Each note, each instrument, each voice is perfectly rendered, offering a unique musical experience.
A major work magnified:
"The Dark Side of the Moon" is a must-have album for progressive rock. The quality of the stereo listening, the precision of the sound and the power of the work make it an extraordinary musical experience, to be savored fully.
For Pink Floyd fans and all lovers of quality music, "The Dark Side of the Moon" is a rediscovery not to be missed with the Junone.
