Truly World Class

Since the introduction of the more accessible SEVEN range, interest in TRON has boomed, receiving international acclaim. As a result of this recognition, we are producing amplifiers of all kinds, including a new 211 based power stage, as fast as we can build them.

We now have a worldwide distribution network in countries such as USA and Canada, Hong Kong and China, Indonesia and Singapore, Germany, France, the Benelux countries, Denmark and Finland, as well as South Africa.

Having exhibited at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, the Stereophile Show and the CES, we have had to redouble our efforts to keep pace with the resulting demand.

Some of the world's leading audio manufacturers are now using TRON as their reference amplification. We are proud to number TW Acustic and Frank Schršder among them. Earlier this year, the Syren and Jubilate were featured in the Robb Report Collection (the Who's Who of luxury goods) in their feature "35 Great Machines" alongside Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Bentley, Ducati and Sunseeker .

Design Concept

The design criteria for TRON is quite simple: To build the best valve amplifiers in the world irrespective of price. To push back the boundaries of what's possible today and to redefine the performance of tomorrow. To do this, the best materials and construction techniques have to be used together with an elegant circuit design. There is only one way this can be achieved and that is for the amplifiers to be hand built. Production based amplifiers, no matter how good they are purported to be, will never get close in performance to a bespoke hand built amplifier. All TRON amplifiers are hand made and meticulously constructed. They are built to a specification and not to a price, hence they represent the very best available today. Each TRON amplifier carries a full five-year parts and labour guarantee.

TRON Electric Background and History

The first TRON was constructed in 1990 and we soon realised the sonic virtues of low power single ended amplifiers, providing they had been designed to address the problems of reliability, low noise and sensitivity. Unable to find any commercial designs that addressed all the above we set out to design a range of valve amplifiers that would be the best in the world. These were named under the TRON Electric brand and the first units to be produced were the Nucleus Phono and Line amplifiers. These were launched at the 1997 London Hi-Fi Show along with a prototype 211 amplifier.

The Maker

Graham Tricker has been working with electronics (and specifically valves) for over thirty years. He was trained as a valve technician in the telecommunications industry in the golden era of electronics. In those days everything was hard wired and Graham was taught to use the same thorough and rigorous techniques as used by the Ministry of Defence - "I know no other way" he says. Graham has written books and articles on the subject and continues to act as a consultant. The mixture of this expert knowledge and Graham's passion for music is a recipe for something truly unique. Graham combines mathematics with craftsmanship to produce a truly original audio instrument. Each amplifier is hand built by Graham himself (the Cantata, for instance, takes over 110 hours to build), and each component is carefully selected and tested. Graham's philosophy is simple: In order to achieve the most pure, emotional sound possible, you have to do things properly, and this is exactly what he does.
