Description

The EML 30A is part of Emission Labs original driver series of DHT’s which include the 12B, 20B/20AM, 30A, and the newly released RS242. Do you dream of building a DHT line stage or an all DHT power amp? If so, you’re looking in the right place.

The 30A has a voltage gain of 30x with an Rp of 6K2 at 25mA (400V B+). This makes it both an excellent output stage driver and a great medium impedance voltage amplifier. These characteristics combined with an extremely low distortion (0.1% at 60VRMS output) give the 30A an incredibly articulate, airy, fast, and accurate timbre. A very unrestrained sound.

The 30A is also a great candidate for a DHT linestage when mated to an 8:1 (or higher) output transformer with adequate primary inductance. This provides a voltage gain of aprx 3.75x with an output impedance of 100Ω.

For high quality line output transformers we recommend Intact Audio and Monolith Magnetics.

All Emission Labs tubes are inspected and tested in-house before shipment. All EML tubes are shipped in factory packaging, with factory test results, as well as our in-house test results.
