  • Notes
  • This Two Valve, Two Stage Amplifier (No. 44012) has a key or switch that gives a " one valve " circuit or a " two valve " circuit. Being fitted with Wecovalves, accumulators are unnecessary, and two dry cells are sufficient for the filaments, whilst a High Tension Battery of 45 volts is recommended for the plate. The characteristics of both the valves and transformers are such that almost perfect amplification is secured, and consequently this instrument can be used with confidence wherever high-grade reproduction is desired. The power output of this Amplifier is comparable with ordinary low-frequency amplifiers and will be found sufficient for operating Loud Speaking Receivers of the small variety.

    The No. 44011 Weconomy Amplifier is a single-stage Amplifier which, like the two-stage Amplifier, contains Western Electric special distortion-less transformers, whilst the silent operation of the Wecovalves ensures the most perfect reception.
