EL34 100/100

July 11, 1997 -- Marshall Amplification introduces two new EL34 Dual Monobloc Power Amplifiers, the 2 X 50-Watt EL34 50/50 and the 2 X 100-Watt EL34 100/100. Both of these stereo all-valve power amplifiers feature Marshall's Monobloc construction - their right and left channels are actually two totally independent amps, from the On/Off switches right through to their output transformers. As a result, each side runs as a completely separate unit yielding increased sonic flexibility and enhanced operational reliability.

The 3U rack space Marshall EL 34 50/50 and EL34 100/100 stereo power amps feature Marshall's "True Differential Inverter" (TDI) circuitry, which improves the articulation of both high and low frequencies. In addition, each channel features a Voicing switch with two options: option A is a classic "smooth" Marshall voicing, while option B is more aggressive and "in your face". These two options can be switched manually via the front panel (which also features recessed brass knobs for durability) or remotely via rear panel-mounted jacks.

The Marshall EL34 50/50 offers four matched Svetlana EL34 valves plus two ECC83 pre-driver valves and two ECC81 phase inverter valves. The EL34 100/100 boasts eight Svetlana EL34s, as well as two ECC83 pre-driver valves and two ECC81 phase inverter valves. Furthermore, each has a stylish gold front plate and a smoked Plexiglas front panel window.

The Marshall EL34 50/50 has a suggested list price of $1,299.00 and the EL34 100/100 has a suggested list price of $1,499.00. Both products are available immediately.
