Notice: Serenity is being redesigned with additional new features. Please note that some or all of the information presented below are to be considered obsolete.
We are proud to present Serenity, a variable-output, 5-gain stage, 2-channel amplifier with a full-featured all-tube FX Loop.
A Medium-to-Ultra High Gain switchable preamp that is also ultra quiet, as well as a variable-output power amp with adjustable feedback and individual Bias Nodes that adds versatility and unsurpassed quality, both in recording as well as live situations.
No more compromises in tone, regardless the volume level!
Serenity’s Power Scaling section is a very versatile tool, allowing the amplifier to be used from 0 Watts, for quiet midnight practice, up to the maximum full power of 50 Watts for Live concert situations,
as well as anywhere in between.
The benefits of Power Scaling are immediately observed to the tone since Power Tube Saturation is accessible at any Output Level, controlled via the preamp’s Master pots.
The system is also smart enough to extend the life of the output tubes when in lower power settings, far more than in standard amplifiers that run at a constant full-power setting.
Usage of the system for consistent tone at all output levels requires that both Output and Comp pots be dialed to the same increment, i.e. both pots at 12 o’ clock, with interesting tonal colors available at different Comp positions.
Serenity’s Bias Section allows for extreme versatility in biasing, allowing for continuous adjustment of the DC balance as the tubes age, since each tube ages in a uniquely different rate. With this system there is no need in wasting money buying matched tubes any more!
Provided, of course, you know what you are doing, you can also mix different tube types, i.e. an EL34 and a 6L6GC!! This amazing feature opens new horizons in power amp voicing, previously thought impossible!
