Border Patrol P20 PUSH-PULL AMPLIFIER

The Border Patrol P20EXD has carved a solid reputation for fine sound quality, serious musical enjoyment and ability to drive loudspeakers that were thought to be beyond the capability of 20W valve amplifiers. Featuring two 300B output triodes per channel in push-pull configuration giving 20W/channel, the P20EXD handles all music with finesse and aplomb and injects a serious dose of energy and excitement. The natural timbres of instruments are superbly portrayed with fine resolution and detail retrieval whilst floor-shaking bass can be delivered should the music demand it. The dual external power supply units are once again in evidence providing a super quiet, black background and a solid bass foundation.

Single-ended all the way up to the inter-stage transformer the P20EXD takes advantage of this supposedly antiquated technology to split the phase in a more accurate and time consistent way than the much more common active phase splitters resulting in a purer sound with better resolution and leading edge definition.

Described by one hi-fi reviewer as ‘one of the finest musical enjoyment devices available’ the Border Patrol is sure to illuminate and extract maximum enjoyment from any music collection.

Recommended loudspeaker efficiency >87dB/watt.
