The Halcro range of amplifiers and preamplifiers brings you closer to pure sound reproduction than ever before. They were designed by Bruce Candy, a physicist and an audiophile, to meet his own stringent requirements of absolute musicality via the purest possible signal. No other amplifier on the market delivers such low levels of distortion, with clarity throughout even the most harmonically complex pieces.
Beneath the elegant shell of a Halcro amplifier lies a combination of revolutionary circuitry, meticulous attention to detail and plain commonsense. Halcro’s proprietary circuitry configuration is such a lateral step, it is not recognizable as that of an amplifier to many engineers. The power supply and audio compartments are physically separated and heavily shielded to retain purity of the signal. Levels of distortion and interference are a fraction of that of all other amplification technologies.
Lack of distortion aside, one of the many things that make Halcro amplifiers so good is the way they maintain the phase coherence of the signal source.
The Audio Salon is honored to be a distributor for Halcro and to offer the entire range of Halcro products to experience at your convenience.
Power factor corrected power supply
Complete isolation from mains-borne noise
Does not induce distortions onto the mains itself (so as not to degrade other hifi components in your system)
Maximum power transfer from the mains to the amplifier
Zero distortion amplifier topology
A dozen unique and patented circuit concepts to eliminate distortion in the audio signal
Minimisation of intrinsic non-linear effects
Compensating circuits to all but eliminate any residual non-linear effects, but in such a way that they do not intrinsically affect parameters such as gain, bandwidth, phase transfer
Physical isolation of circuit elements
The input stage is shielded from non-linear magnetic fields generated by the output power devices by a series of substantial eddy current screens
Substantial solid copper transmission lines connecting circuit elements in the audio path.
The power supply is housed in a separate compartment to the Amplifier to all but eliminate induced noise in the audio path.
