BA-303
Commentary

A tube type power amplifier released by SANSUI.
After BA-202 and BA-303, a bulb-type power amplifier was not sold for a long time.

The circuit configuration is Williamson type.
This type of circuit configuration is not suitable for a high-feedback amplifier because it has three stages of time constant in the low-frequency range. However, it has a feature that the high-frequency characteristics hardly deteriorate compared to the mid-frequency range because it consists of an all-3-pole tube.

Output tube KT-88 is used for BA 303.

Equipped with a bias check meter.
