Air Tight ATM-1 – the 2024 version of the legendary amplifier

The Air Tight ATM-1 stereo power amplifier uses precision components - an output transformer and choke coil from Tamura (the device consumes 250 VA from the outlet). It is also worth noting the bias meter with a very precise user setting scale (the fixed bias option is also present).
