Congratulations on your purchase of the Audio Note (UK) ANKORU/II MONO power
amplifiers.
They are Pure Class A Parallel Singled Ended valve mono amplifiers, using a pair of
the highly regarded 211 triode valves per chassis, producing a level of performance
that is radically superior to the vast majority of current designs.
They use a similar circuit design and topology to the legendary Audio Note (UK)
GAKU-ON amplifiers. However, where the GAKU-ON power amplifiers use silver
wherever possible, such as for all transformer windings, the ANKORU/II instead use
copper.
They have been specifically engineered for sonic performance rather than technical
specification, and fulfill all Audio Note (UK) Level 3 criteria: -
Pure Class A operation
Zero Negative Feedback
Single Ended Output Stage
Valve Rectification
Directly Heated Triode operation
Materials and component quality
Please take care when unpacking your ANKORU/II MONO power amplifiers. Choose
a clean, clear location to unpack your unit. Be aware that the amplifiers are very
heavy; before attempting to unpack or lift the unit, check the weight and if necessary
use more than one person so that it can be moved safely and easily.
We recommend that you retain and carefully store all of the original packing
materials, in case transportation / shipping is required at a later date.
Select a suitable location for the units. This should be a dry, dust free and level area,
preferably shielded from direct sunlight and free from vibration. Also ensure that the
location is stable and capable of carrying the weight of the units.
A suitable mains power outlet must be close to the location; power cords must not be
pulled or stretched tightly in an attempt to reach a wall socket. If the power cord will
not easily reach the socket, choose a closer location!
Please ensure that adequate ventilation for the units is provided, and that airflow
through any ventilation slots in the units is not restricted. We recommend a distance
of at least 50cm free space is maintained above the units, and preferably they should
be sited in free space or on the top shelf of your equipment rack or table. Please also
remember that valve equipment operates at extremely high temperatures, so a
position that is inaccessible to any children or animals is essential.
