Ultimate 300B Amplifier

Double the Performance

Trouble-free, noise-free, and double the power of traditional 300B amps. Made possible by patented circuit design.

A New Classic

We’re proud to continue a legacy of quality, American manufacturing with innovative new features.

Ships with Tubes

The 91E ships with new production 300Bs, the most popular electron tubes in the world. Made in the USA.

SPECIFICATIONS
ADD-ONS • FEATURES

• The Western Electric Type 91E is a Class A, single-ended (SE), integrated amplifier for high-fidelity audio reproduction. 

• The 91E was made for the Western Electric 300B to provide end users the highest possible performance and quality.

• Available in three (3) colors

• In the box

  • 91E Integrated Amplifier

  • Remote control

  • Pin-Straightener (9-pin)

  • 2x 300B Electron Tubes (Power)

  • 2x ECC81 Electron Tubes (Pre-amplifier, pre-installed)

  • 8 Ω Output Transformer Block (pre-installed)

  • Power Cord

  • Spanner tool (for removal and/or replacement of 300B’s)

  • BT antenna

  • End User Guide

• Steered Current Source Technology (SCS)
  Experience double the traditional output power with advanced, single-ended (SE) circuit design. This new level of performance is reached by using a fully linear, steered current source (US Patent 10256776) controlled exclusively by the tube’s output voltage. The excess of common large output transformers and associated hysteresis is eliminated, and as a result, lush detail in the midrange and masterfully articulated upper and lower frequencies are revealed.

• Stepped Logarithmic Attenuator
  A stepped logarithmic attenuator is used to mimic the response of human hearing. The attenuator consists of only discrete resistors in a ladder configuration that are switched in and out of circuit to produce a logarithmic attenuation of the output signal. 

• Interchangeable Transformer Block
  The standard 8-ohm transformer block can be interchanged with the optional 4-ohm or 16-ohm version. This feature is unique to the 91E Integrated Amplifier and allows users to match speaker impedance for improved fidelity. Single impedance transformers maintain lower winding capacitance normally vitiated with multiple tap transformers.

• LCD Display
  A bright and easy to read color display shows the selected input, attenuator level, and VU meter. The display also shows settings which can be adjusted by the included remote control. The display is dimmable. 

• Remote Control
  The included infrared remote control allows for quick adjustment of amplifier settings such as input levels, balance, and display dimming.

• Six Audio Inputs
  Up to six (6) source devices can be connected during amplifier operation. 

• Auto-Bias
  Microprocessors automatically bias the 300B tube pair each time the amplifier is powered on. No manual adjustment is necessary.

• BT Compatibility
  BT compatible audio input is available for wireless convenience.

• Software & Firmware Updates via Ethernet Connection and USB

Amplifier includes a Limited Warranty of ninety (90) days to the end user. The Limited Warranty period may be extended to three (3) years after the product is registered with Western Electric.

Note Regarding Replica 300B Tubes
The 91E was designed for operation with Western Electric manufactured 300B electron tubes. The application of non-original or replica type 300B tubes may result in weakened performance, distorted sound, or unexpected behavior, potentially harming both the amplifier and said replica tubes. 

Western Electric takes no responsibility for damage caused by the application of replica 300B electron tubes during operation. If, during an open customer service or repair case, damage caused by the application of non-original 300B electron tubes is discovered by Western Electric or is disclosed to Western Electric by the end user, the case will be determined closed and the product warranty shall be vitiated.
