  • Bemerkung

  • The Radford MA15 series of amplifiers was a well-regarded line of vacuum tube audio amplifiers produced in the 1960s.

    There were four versions:

    1. MA15 Mk1: This was the original version of the amplifier.
    2. MA15 Mk2 Early: An updated version of the original design.
    3. MA15 Mk2 Late: A further refinement of the Mk2 design.
    4. CMA15: This was a kit version of the MA15 amplifier.

    The original Radford MA15 Mk1 was a monoblock valve power amplifier with the following characteristics:

    • Output power: 15 watts
    • Circuit design: Based on a variant of the classic Philips/Mullard '5-20' circuit
    • Output stage: Push-pull EL34 pentodes in ultra-linear configuration
    • Phase inverter: Triode-triode configuration
    • Feedback: Lower amount compared to Mk2
    • Output transformer: Less advanced than Mk2, with first resonance around 60-70kHz
    • Performance: Higher distortion levels, especially at frequency extremes
    • Power delivery: Limited ability to deliver full power at high frequencies

    Radford MA15 Mk1 Output Transformer

    • Resonance Frequency: The Mk1 output transformer had a first resonance around 60-70kHz.
    • Performance: This design resulted in higher phase shifts and distortion at high frequencies, limiting its ability to deliver full power at the upper end of the audible spectrum.
    • Design Complexity: The transformer was less advanced, which contributed to reduced stability and slightly inferior sound quality compared to the Mk2.
