1 Introduction to the Fuchs Audio Casino series™ amplifiers
Representing a new direction for Fuchs Audio Technology, the Casino series ™ brings
the high build quality and awesome tones people expect of Fuchs products, to a new
more affordable price range. These amps are based on a three 12AX7 preamp stage, and
each model has it’s own unique power stage. The 4-Aces By switching to a 6V6, you can
reduce power to less than 5-watts. Unlike other amps in this price range, this series
features two channels, a digital reverb, gain boost, and a ton of features unlike any
other boutique D-style amp in this pricerange. They feature a full compliment of
extremely flexible tone controls. A surprising amount of clean headroom is available
before the output stage begins distorting with a sweet yet cutting rock edge.
The chassis (like all Fuchs products) is aircraft grade aluminum; our internal construction
is mixed PC board and hard wired. On these models the preamp tubes and power supply
circuitry are on the circuit card, while the power tubes and transformers are mounted
on the chassis. A detachable power cord is standard. By using single point grounding,
the amp is quiet and free of hum at all operating levels.
A single input and 3 speaker outputs for 4-8-16 ohms are provided. An effects patch jack
is provided as is a dual footswitch jack for channel and gain boost via a dual LED
footswitch.
