Raven Audio Nighthawk Integrated Tube Amplifier

Raven Audio推出 Nighthawk，每聲道20W的真空管綜合擴大機。提供寬帶、滑順、細緻和存在感十足的聲音。
箱體由碳鋼(14-gauge carbon steel)製造和航空級鋁合金面板。
Raven Audio的 Dave Thomson結合了經典真空管和當代的技術、材料和複合材料製作。





Raven Audio has introduced Nighthawk, a 20 watt-per-channel integrated tube amplifier for a relatively affordable price. The company claims it delivers a wideband, smooth, detailed and very present, very palpable sound with a polished look and feel. You’ll hear with your ears with the added dimensions of emotion and excitement, a nearness to the music that makes everything breathtakingly real.

The chassis is manufactured of sturdy 14-gauge carbon steel with an aircraft-grade aluminum faceplate and a handsome small-signal tube plate on top. Raven Audio doesn’t skimp on quality; the handles are made of schedule-20 carbon steel with knobs machined from aircraft-grade aluminum.

The folded carbon steel plate gets a high-quality primer and several coats of high-grade automotive enamel that’s baked and clear-coated several times with aircraft-grade sealant. The result is a deep, lustrous finish that looks great and sounds awesome.

Raven Audio’s Dave Thomson, like many enthusiasts, is convinced that tubes do things better, especially when combining the best of classic tube design with contemporary technology, materials and composites to achieve a wideband, engaging, extremely musical sound that gets beyond the mechanics of playback.

Many audiophiles are captivated by the sound of tubed components. The advantage of integrated amplifiers is that the preamp and amplifier sections are built into one chassis resulting in shorter signal paths. It also takes less space and eliminates the need for another set of cables. Plus all Raven Audio integrates and amplifiers are self-biasing so you never have to adjust tubes for a perfect match.

BSC L5 Three-Chassis Remote Controlled Line Level Preamplifier & BSC S5 Stereo and M5 Mono amplifiers

S5和M5擴大機延續了BSC-60和BSC-100M A類擴大機的成功。這兩款新的擴大機重新定義了標準，成為新的參考系列擴大機。

關於S5，是一部A類放大的立體聲擴大機。單邊在8歐姆的情況下提供80W的推力，建構在1,450 VA的環形變壓器和每聲道超過54,000微法的濾波電容上。
設計上採用雙單聲道設計，由兩個獨立電路和隔離輸出建構。內部有兩個散熱器做冷卻。並且可以切換成約38W的A/B類輸出做低功耗輸出。

關於M5，他不只是更大推力的單聲道擴大機，也擁有更佳的能力。同樣的1,450環形變壓器但配合超過108,000微法的濾波電容。在8歐姆的條件下輸出功率為140W，1歐姆時更可連續輸出1,120W。
M5擁有兩個重新設計過的超安靜環形變壓器，耦合一個高電流和兩個穩壓電源供應器。第二個變壓器被設計用在較低層次的電路上。M5的線路路徑簡短並經過優化。所有組件都通過軍用標準。
為了排散A類140W擴大時產生的熱量，內部安裝四個散熱器來冷卻輸出裝置。使用者也可切換成63W的A/B類輸出模式達到低耗能的方式。
