Designers of hybrid amplifiers can use solid-state devices in an amp's input stage and tubes in its driver and output stages, as Music Reference's Roger Modjeski did in his RM-200 Mk.II—or they can use tubes in the input and transistors in the output, as Ypsilon Electronics' Demetris Baklavas prefers . . .
Description: Hybrid monoblock power amplifier. Tube complement: one 6H30 Pi or 5687 (input), one 6CA4 or EZ81 (rectifier). Inputs: unbalanced (RCA), balanced (XLR). Output power at 1kHz: 370W into 8 ohms (25.7dBW, (first 100W in class-A), 650W into 4 ohms (25.1dBW), 1150W into 2 ohms (24.6dBW). Frequency response: 6Hz–80kHz, –3dB (input transformer peak: +2.5dB at 50kHz). Voltage gain: 26dB (x20). Input impedance: 47k ohms. Output impedance: 0.3 ohm. THD (1kHz into 8 ohms, 6H30 Pi tube): 0.7% at 100W, 1.2% at 300W. THD (1kHz into 8 ohms, 5687 tube): 1% at 300W. Signal/noise: N/S.
Conclusions
Ypsilon Electronics' Hyperion is a powerful, cannily designed, exquisitely voiced monoblock power amplifier. Inside and out, its construction quality is as impressive as it should be for $93,000/pair. Because of its tubes, its distortion spec of 0.7% at 100W into 8 ohms will probably freak out the measurement fetishists, to whom I say: Just listen to it, and keep in mind that the tube microphones used in the making of many of your favorite recordings probably measured similarly.
The Hyperion strikes the ideal balance between tube-amp richness and flow and solid-state quiet, authority, and dynamic swagger. And it does this without making you conscious of each technology's contribution to the whole—something I felt that Ypsilon's far less expensive Aelius didn't manage quite as well.
