There are very few modern designers in the audio field who can claim as much as Tim de Paravicini. No aspect of the recording and reproduction chain has been left untouched, no aspect of circuit design not further researched and developed. As early as 1965 Tim was involved in custom design work for rock and roll bands; manufacturing his own public address equipment, and modifying existing studio equipment to realise even greater potential. Tim de Paravicini works by a simple premises: If he designs it, it must be a better design than anything else, or he will not manufacture it. His sole goal is taking audio to the furthest possible point of development. Current research is taking him further along this path than any single competitor.

EAR 869 Integrated Amplifier
|
|
There's nothing that can't be improved - and if anyone could improve the 859 it would of course have to be its original designer. Hence the 869: the basic output topology of the 859 with a slightly revised output transformer, plus a modified input stage with one extra small-signal valve. This has allowed a small but significant increase in output power to 15W per channel, and even better control of operating conditions irrespective of valve parameters (meaning better consistency as valves age or are replaced). In sound quality terms, this means, in essence, the same but better and more of it, for longer.

EAR 88PB Valve Phono Amplifier
|
|
EAR 834P was one of the very first standalone phono stages and has become one of our best-selling products. Now the continuing popularity of vinyl has encouraged us to develop an upmarket phono preamp, the 88PB.
Drawing on designer Tim de Paravicini’s vast knowledge of audio electronics, and employing several of the innovations he incorporated in the class-leading The Paravicini 312 Control Centre, a fully-featured preamp and 324 phono stage (both solid state), the 88PB is a definitive statement in valve electronics.

EAR 324 Transistor Phono Pre Amplifier
|
|
The EAR 324 is the perfect solution for the vinyl-loving audiophile who demands the highest quality and the greatest flexibility. It features perfectly tailored inputs for both moving coil and moving magnet cartridges and offers accurate, low-noise amplification with vanishingly small signal degradation.
A fully transistorised product, it draws heavily on his acclaimed '312 Control Centre' preamplifier in its circuitry but adds flexibility with switchable input impedance for both moving coil (MC) and moving magnet (MM) cartridges. Two separate inputs allow easy switching between two turntables (or two arms on one turntable), ideal for the serious collector who may have a separate deck and pickup for mono discs.

EAR MC4 Step-Up Cartridge Transformer
|
|
Upgrade version of MC3. Same popular style of Chrome fascia and transformer pot, matching style of integrated/power amp of the EAR834, EAR859, V20, EAR861 and EAR890. Input impedances 3ohm, 6ohm, 12ohm, & 40ohm, voltage gain x30, x24, x18, x10. It will allow for the very best of "Moving Coil" cartridges.
An “Ideal Transformer” must by definition ‘transform one kind of energy to another without loss’ no more or no less ! We have achieved results for audio close to the ideal, for it will allow the very best of “Moving Coil” cartridges to extract the most possible information out of the groove. Most Active “Head Amps” have many flaws which inhibit the release of all the possible information out of the groove because the laws of economics and physics prohibits most designers from achieving the ideal, which is wide bandwidth minimal time distortion, minimum noise contribution, and maximum protection from external influences.

EAR 890 Power Amplifier

EAR890 Parallel Push Pull 8 Valve Power Amplifier
The 800 series of amplifiers from EAR has received widespread and consistent acclaim from users and reviewers the world over. However, feedback from some quarters suggested that there was a need for an amplifier with similar sonic prowess but just a little more power.
Taking as a starting point the circuits used in the 834 integrated amplifier, Tim de Paravicini has addressed that need by producing the 890 power amplifier. Using the innovative KT90 valve from EI, he has been able to offer 70W of clean Class-A audio from the same chassis as the 834. One of the few new valve designs of the last 30 years, the KT90 draws on the strengths of the EL509 valve (as used in many EAR amplifiers) and is capable of sustained high power operation with great reliability. Two pairs per channel are hardly stressed in the EAR 890.

EAR 861 Power Amplifier

The new EAR 861 power amplifier
Tim de Paravicini wants to prove the ETM circuit is capable of even greater things! The starting point of the design was the ‘859, and with some justification, the ‘861 could be regarded as a push - pull version on the ‘859, however, this is more than a slight understatement: Each output transformer has a massive 5 kilogram weight, with no feedback applied over it. The circuit is balanced push - pull from input to output, allowing balanced (professional) style inputs as well as conventional RCA phono jack socket. Similar to the ‘859, the circuit is direct coupled. Tube choice is not critical; perfect operation does not rely on matched tubes, or user adjustable bias.

EAR 534 Power Amplifier
|
|
The EAR534 has been designed to meet a wide variety of needs, from the most demanding of audiophiles to the professional seeking high quality monitoring equipment in the studio field. The circuit design uses push-pull output and driver stages, a hight quality in-house designed output transformer and low negative feedback. It is capable of operationg in bridged-mono mode, to make a true mono block amplifier. Tube life is long (and replacement costs are modest) and the circuit operates in pre Class A.

EAR 868L Pre Amplifier
|
|
EAR868PL Full-function pre-amplifier, with remote control volume facility. The EAR 912 preamplifier took the world by storm when it was released a few years ago. This is not at all surprising, the 912 is simply unsurpassed, a masterpiece from the Paravacini stable. Now with the new EAR 868 preamplifier you can get close to the 912 performance. The 868 linestage is the same as the 912 and the phono section gets really close. Of course, you don't get the same amount of facilities or a chassis as substantial as the 912, and the V U meters have gone but the essentials are all there and most importantly, the 868 makes music!
