The Traynor YBA200
Thank you for choosing the Traynor YBA200 All-Tube Bass Amplifier. You are about to revisit
one of the best quality-of-sound instrument amplifiers ever built.
The YBA200 is truly an evolution of technology and in true Traynor all tube tradition,
no semiconductors are in the signal path. The YBA200 features capabilities such as
a Resonance control, which adjusts the damping factor at the amplifier’s output stage
(allowing the player to take full advantage of the tonal capabilities of instrument speaker
cabinets). Modern technologies, such as specially designed toroidal transformers provide
increased reliability and real vintage tube sound, without the heavy weight usually associated
with vintage tube amplifiers. Bottom line, the YBA200 has real vintage tube sound, no
compromises, and no excuses.
Features
• Two 12AX7 pre-amp tubes, a 12AU7 phase-splitter, and four KT88 power output tubes
staying true to the all tube signal path Traynor philosophy. Class A/B amplification.
• Variable-range 3-band passive tone stack EQ with Scoop and Resonance Controls
• Unity gain, with a true balanced D.I./Line output. Selectable Pre-EQ or Post-EQ, –20 dB
pad (and Ground Lift).
• Pre-Amp Out and Power Amp Input jacks. These jacks provide direct access to the
YBA200’s signal chain so you may slave out, or slave into, another amp; or you can use
these jacks as an effects loop (for professional-grade signal processing equipment).
• Tuner Out jack and Mute switch.
• Extremely lightweight due to specially designed toroidal transformers.
