Overview
Takatsuki TA-2A3 shown with Woo Audio WA23 LUNA amplifier (sold separately)
90% of the components made in Japan are used, and the production is 100% completed in the company's own factory.
The glass is lead-free and environmentally friendly Kovar glass. In addition, we have achieved a stable shape with no thickness irregularities by in-house molding.
The plate is made by pressing the cladding metal consisting of three types of metal with special mold.
Filaments are cut out by the special method from high purity Ni thin plates for vacuum use.
The grid uses carefully selected tungsten material and is drawn out by a die, resulting in a diameter tolerance of ±1μm or less. Furthermore, in order to improve the quality, gold plating is applied.
