About the VTM-120 SE

The Audio Research VTM-120 SE is a monaural hybrid tube power amplifier designed for high-fidelity audio applications. It delivers 110 watts of power output using triode-connected output tubes and features automatic bias adjustment for ease of maintenance. The amplifier is a refinement of the Classic 120 model, incorporating high-quality vacuum tubes such as 6FQ7 in the input stage. It is known for its transparent sound quality, making it sensitive to upstream component changes. The VTM-120 SE has a robust build with a standard 19-inch rack panel width, measuring approximately 7 3/16 inches in height and 13.3 inches in depth behind the panel. It weighs about 46 pounds. The amplifier uses stereo L/R RCA inputs and is a single-channel (mono) amplifier. It is highly regarded for its musicality and clarity, suitable for audiophiles who appreciate tube amplification characteristics.
