About the Ongaku
The Audio Note Ongaku is a pure Class A single-ended valve integrated amplifier that has earned a legendary status for delivering the finest possible audio reproduction. It uses the highly regarded 211 / VT-4C triode valves and is engineered specifically for sonic performance rather than technical specifications. The amplifier employs only the finest components, including Audio Note (UK) silver wire for all internal wiring and transformers, Audio Note 2 watt Tantalum resistors, Black Gate Electrolytic or Audio Note silver foil capacitors, and custom-designed silver-wired transformers. It operates with zero negative feedback, valve rectification, and directly heated triode operation, fulfilling Audio Note (UK) Level 5 criteria. The Ongaku produces approximately 20 to 27 watts per channel into 4 or 8 Ohm loads, with a channel balance of +/- 0.3dB. It weighs 48 kg and measures 305mm (H) x 305mm (W) x 640mm (D). The amplifier is highly praised for its incredible soundstage, pinpoint imaging, dynamic range, tonal balance, and harmonic richness, especially excelling with acoustic instruments. It is considered one of the finest integrated amplifiers available today, with a price reflecting its high-end status.
