Four RCA inputs, a real analogue volume potentiometer and backlit mechanical VU meters make it a complete integrated amplifier for a pair of passive speakers, and Soundium supplies it with full manufacturer warranty and local support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSix tubes, pure Class A:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 × JJ Electronic EL34 in push-pull pentode mode, driven by 2 × Sylvania NOS PCF80 on the input and voltage stages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e28 W + 28 W into 4 Ω or 8 Ω:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rated at THD+N below 5%; at the stricter sub-1% threshold FiiO still specifies at least 18 W + 18 W per channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCustom output transformers:\u003c\/strong\u003e EI silicon-steel laminate cores, epoxy-potted and sealed, wound for wide bandwidth and low noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeparate 4 Ω and 8 Ω taps:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold-plated binding posts for each impedance, so the amplifier is matched to the speaker rather than compromised across both\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour RCA inputs with rotary selector:\u003c\/strong\u003e An encoder-driven four-position switch and a high-quality analogue potentiometer, no digital volume anywhere in the path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLED-backlit mechanical VU meters:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual-channel moving needles, with adjustable RGB lighting under the tube deck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6.35 mm headphone output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 185 mW into 300 Ω for high-impedance headphones, driven from the same valve stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCNC aluminium chassis:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aviation-grade machined front panel, unibody shell with electromagnetic shielding, vibration-damping feet and a removable perforated tube cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCustomer Benefits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClass A valve amplification is normally the expensive end of hi-fi, and the parts list is usually where budget designs give up. The EA13 spends its money where it is audible: NOS input tubes, properly potted transformers, Japanese NCC filter capacitors, axial metal-film coupling capacitors and an analogue potentiometer. Standby draws just over 1 W and a 30-minute auto-shutdown turns the amplifier off when the music stops, which matters on a design that idles at around 220 W. The tube cover stays on for households with curious hands and comes off when you want to watch the EL34s work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQuick Specs\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTopology:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pure Class A push-pull, pentode mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTubes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 × JJ Electronic EL34, 2 × Sylvania NOS PCF80\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker output:\u003c\/strong\u003e ≥ 28 W + 28 W into 4 Ω and 8 Ω (THD+N \u0026lt; 5%); ≥ 18 W + 18 W (THD+N \u0026lt; 1%)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadphone output:\u003c\/strong\u003e ≥ 185 mW + 185 mW into 300 Ω; ≥ 60 mW + 60 mW into 32 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 Hz – 60 kHz (attenuation below 2.9 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal-to-noise ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e ≥ 97 dB A-weighted (speaker output)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNoise floor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Below 150 µV A-weighted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 × RCA line, 12 V trigger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 Ω and 8 Ω speaker binding posts, 6.35 mm headphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 43 × 33.9 × 14.5 cm (W×D×H)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.7 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFiiO EA13 vacuum tube amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable perforated tube cover (fitted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAC power cord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrewdriver and two screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick start guide and warranty card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eListeners with efficient bookshelf or floorstanding speakers who want valve tone and a real Class A circuit without a five-figure budget, vinyl and CD owners feeding line-level sources straight into an analogue volume control, and anyone who wants the amplifier to be part of the room rather than hidden in a rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePros \u0026amp; Cons\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"pros\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ Six-tube pure Class A design with NOS input valves and potted custom transformers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ Separate 4 Ω and 8 Ω taps, four line inputs and a proper analogue potentiometer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ Mechanical VU meters and a removable cover make the tubes part of the design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"cons\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e⚠️ Class A runs hot and idles near 220 W — it needs ventilation and clearance above the tubes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e⚠️ 17.7 kg and no remote control, so placement and volume are both hands-on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e⚠️ Line inputs only: no built-in DAC, phono stage or streaming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFinal Word\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EA13 is the amplifier FiiO built once it had nothing left to prove about portable audio: heavy, hot, analogue and unapologetic about it.
