The Puddle Sound '#001 TOKYO' amplifier is an elegant piece of audio equipment that puts a focus on primitive materials in order to create a high-end aesthetic for audiophiles and design aficionados alike to appreciate.
The amplifier is constructed with a base of natural clay on top of a stainless steel base that puts the components front and center including vacuum tubes and a circular heatsink achieved with 400 copper cooling pins. The controls are hidden below and are further accented with ambient lighting that shines over them, which speaks to a sense of minimalism that further enhances the harmonic nature of the equipment.
