Features of Stratos HT3.

Power: 3x150 W Class A/AB; Weight: > 64 lbs.

All odyssey equipment is made in the USA, parts & labor.

Unit is constructed of solid metal that is precision-machined using in-house computerized CNC mills.

Faceplate and backplate are 0.4" (10 mm)-thick brushed aluminum.

Standard finish is matte black. The following optional colors are available either for the faceplate only for the complete unit for an additional $ 75: "Wet-Black", Silver, Gold, Dark-Blue, Burgundy, "Copper" , "Hunter Green", and Purple. Please look up our "Options" page to see the products in the different colors.

Laser engraving is used for all lettering. No silk screening.

Instead of an ordinary LED indicator on the faceplate, we offer a more unique indicator that features the Odyssey logo sand-blasted into glass. The glass assembly incorporates a special lighting effect that produces a lit 3-D holographic Odyssey image.

We only use parts of the highest quality, including low-tolerance Wima caps, metal film resistors, and ALPS potentiometers.

Units undergo a three-level QC process that includes: (1) Careful testing of all components and assembled boards; (2) Testing of units immediately following assembly, (3) A strict 48 - 72 hour burn-in process. Final steps include a double-check of bias and offset, oscilloscope and spectral analyzer testing, and individual listening tests on our reference system.

All transformers are specifically designed for the amplifier in partnership with Plitron engineers.

All output transistors are measured and matched to within 1%.

Reference-grade Audio Selection dampers are included as standard!!. These "feet" provide resonance control and surface de-coupling.

Heavy-duty gold-plated WBT connectors are standard as are Neutrik XLR connectors.
