How does the GLOW amplifier make digital music files sound so good?
GLOW tube amplifiers are unique in providing plug and play USB connectivity. And, it is very easy to hook an iPod or other portable digital music device directly to a GLOW amplifier. When the GLOW amplifier plays a digital source, even a compressed source, something amazing happens… the harsh, one dimensional digitized sound comes to life! No, the tube amp cannot “repair” the compressed digital file. The fact is, much of the original musical content has been lost as a result of the compression process. But, the tube amplifier does bring out the best of what is left, imparting air and depth and space that otherwise may not be reproduced by a transistor amplifier. You have never heard an iPod sound as good as when it is played through a GLOW system!
