Black Ice Audio Fusion 65A Integrated Tube Amplifier - 85 WPC* (Reference)
The Black Ice Audio F65A is the next level of Black Ice Audio and is built in Maryland. We have gathered and tested components for the last 10 years to find the best combination to supercharge our “Goldilocks” tube integrated amplifier that uses the same tubes as our F35 but is 30% smaller and 17 pounds lighter.
