The details

What if we blew up the whole entry-level tube headphone amp idea by making a stunningly beautiful product that outperforms stuff that’s way more expensive? Well there’s no “what if” about it. Meet Vali 3 the new standard in affordable tube gear.Class-Crushing TechGo ahead and compare Vali 3 to the competition…and you’ll find there’s no comparison. With a full 100V on the plate Vali 3 crushes other designs using only 12-48V. Tubes love voltage and Vali 3 provides it. For output Vali 3 uses a fully discrete Class AB bipolar stage in our own Coherence current-feedback topology—no op-amps or chip amps like you’ll find in other products. The result is an amp that’s nothing like anything near its price.Insanely Good LooksAt the same time you’ll notice our new advanced form custom-stamped chassis—made in California by the way—that takes affordable design to new levels. Compare to other gear in off-the-shelf or open-frame chassis. Again no comparison!A Complete Tube SystemVali 3 is ready to tube your entire desktop—delivering plenty of power for hard-to-drive headphones and a low noise floor for more sensitive cans. Plus it covers all your needs with preamp outputs for your powered monitors or speaker power amp…and it stacks perfectly withour Modi DACs or Loki Mini equalizer to create a complete desktop system.One Tube to Roll ThemWe chose one tube because let’s face it: good tubes are getting harder to get. Vali 3 ships with a 6N3P tube standard. Stick with that for great stock sound or find the perfect tube for your needs with tons of interesting options including 5670 2C51 ECC42 and CV4013. Got a big wallet? Heck it will accept the legendary WE396A!Designed and Built in TexasBy “designed and built in Texas" this is what we mean: the vast majority of the total production cost of Vali 3—chassis boards assembly etc—goes to US companies manufacturing in the US.
