Trilogy Audio Says

Trilogy Special Products Division S.P.D. further extends the exclusivity and design credentials of our brand. The H1 electrostatic headphone energiser is the first such product in this series.
SPD products will be, by their very nature pushing the boundaries of aesthetic design and circuit topology. SPD components never follow trends or notions without thorough research. Each and every design will be unique and in many cases are niche and limited in production run.
Each and every product produced will be hand assembled and tested by Nic Poulson personally. Ensuring it’s at the pinnacle of what we can produce.
In SPD we strive to lead in the creation, development and production of the finest possible components. SPD is a balance of uncompromising function and form in perfect harmony, SPD sets the standard.
Trilogy has opted to make the first Special Products Division product a component where nuance and tangibility is etched in fine detail - an electrostatic headphone energiser built with meticulous sonic craftsmanship.
The SPD H1 circuit is unique in terms of a solution. The design consists of two separate toroidal transformers, one for heating the triodes, the other for the high tension supply. The vacuum tube circuit utilises high transconductance military specification tubes throughout.
The input tubes are two pairs of 6C3П followed by one pair of 6H6П output tubes.
The H1 is a pure Class A fully balanced circuit with both wide bandwidth and zero feedback giving a pure communication between the listener and the music. Naturally on this no compromise design wiring is Teflon coated point to point silver plated copper. The output sockets are PTFE/Teflon with gold plated contact surfaces and suit all Stax and similar electrostatic headphones.
The H1 provides palpable bass and a forthright and authoritative midrange, in addition to the quality airiness that electrostatic headphones are so renowned for. The ephemeral yet conversely frustrating qualities of the traditional experience of electrostatic headphone presentation have been addressed. It has taken time to reverse conventional thinking, but the result was worth it.
Experience the openness and pure escapism the H1 provides.
As with any Stax compatible energiser performance is dependent on the quality of the source i.e. CD players analogue output stage, and quality of other manufacturers digital volume controls, but the buyer of the H1 rest assured that Trilogy has, once again redefined the standard by which Stax compatible energisers must be judged by and must be experienced to be believed.
