    The document summarizes the EAR 859 Single Ended Triode Amplifier. It was designed by Tim de Paravicini to be the best SET amplifier on the market using an innovative circuit called Enhanced Triode Mode with the 6KG6/EL519 tube. This gives better, more linear results than directly heated triodes with high power and reliability. Reviews praised its unique valve sound without the usual mushiness of SET amplifiers. It won several awards for outstanding sound quality.

    The EAR 859 Single Ended Triode Amplifier

    Tim de Paravicini has been accredited by many as starting the valve renaissance in England. Tim, who has worked around all corners
    of the globe, has unique ideas and designs, that are a “clean sheet” from the designs of old. A lot of his competitors use old, tired
    designs to flavor the sound, and do not seek to advance the state of the art.

    The EAR 859 was designed to be “the best” Single Ended Triode amplifier on the market. Tim as always, was keen to cut a new path
    through the forest and ignored the week and vulnerable, inferior and obsolete direct heated triodes (such as the 300B). He based his
    design on his favorite valve, the 6KG6/EL519, developing a new operating mode called Enhanced Triode Mode, or ETM for short.
    This revolutionary new circuit cleverly tied the control grid (G1) to the cathode, mitigating the potential difference on the two, and fed
    the control signal in to the screen grid (G2). This gave better, more linear results than directly heated triodes, with the added
    advantages of high power anode rating, and maximum reliability.

    This was put together in a DC connected, low feedback pure Class “A” circuit, that automatically compensates for valve spread;
    maintaining excellent, reliable, sound quality for an extended period of time.

    The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and the EAR 859 does not disappoint. It has that unique valve sound, but without the usual
    single ended “mush”. All of Tim de Paravicini’s designs have the influence from his professional products, and this clearly shows.
    Hifi reviewers around the World have acclaimed the EAR 859 as, to quote one South African Magazine “The finest Integrated Valve
    Amp we have ever heard”. In England, Ken Kessler of Hifi News summed up his review by saying “yes, yes, yes, yes”, and even in
    Japan, the worlds most diverse and intense market, the ‘859 has won critical acclaim from Japan’s most prestigious Hifi Magazine
    “Stereo Sound”. It was honored so highly as to be nominated for the “Component of the Year” (COTY) award, and was highly
    commended; an outstanding achievement for a 13 watt single ended tube amplifier.
