The THD BiValve is the long awaited big brother to the hugely successful UniValve amplifier, which has been called "... one of the world's ultimate studio amplifiers." by Guitarist Magazine.

The THD BiValve is an American made, Class-A single-ended, 30-watt, tube amplifier, with a built-in THD Hot Plate power attenuator, Line Out and selectable output impedance selector.

The BiValve is designed with a self-biasing circuit that allows you to easily switch the two (2) octal type output tubes at will, for an amazing breadth of different tones, without re-biasing the amp.  Usable tubes include EL34, 6L6, 5881, 6550, 7027, KT90, KT88, KT77 and KT66, for a nominal output or 30-watts RMS.  With the amp set to the "LoV" setting you can also use two 6V6 tubes for a total output of around 10-watts.  EL84 output tubes may also be used with the purchase of the THD YJUni Yellow Jacket adaptors.

The two preamp tubes may also be easily switched with any combination of 12AX7, 12AT7, 12AU7, 12AY7 and 12AZ7 dual triode preamp tubes, for an even greater pallet of complex tone capabilities.

From smooth, clear and clean country type tones to very aggressive, over-driven Marshall type tones ... this little amp does it all!

The special "Attitude" control determines how the driver stage responds to the signal and how it drives the power tube, allowing you the flexibility to tweak your tone.

The BiValve is designed with a "HiV/LoV" switch, which reduces the voltage to the tubes, somewhat like a Variac.  In the LoV setting, power is reduced by about half, pick attach is slowed, the feel is more "elastic" and the amp has more "bloom".  Again, more flexible tone options for the player, at just a touch of a switch.

The built-in Hot Plate power attenuator allows you to further tweak your tone, by allowing you to drive the tube to full saturation, while reducing or "attenuating", the output power to lower levels to better fit small recording or playing applications.

The transformer-isolated Line Out and selectable 2, 4, 8 and 16-ohm output impedance switch, allows you the external connection capability for almost any application.

Simple user controls, unbelievable flexibility, multiple complex tone capability and 30 LOUD watts makes the THD BiValve THE perfect amplifier for recording studios, small to medium size venues or session applications where a higher output wattage and almost unlimited tone flexibility are required in a single amp!
