The 

Timbre Lock®

 

 

The 

Timbre Lock

®

 is an 

Audiopax

 invention that allows the best possible match 

of the distortion behavior of their amplifiers with any of their speakers, resulting in the 
best  distortion  spectrum  for  the  system  as  a  whole  (we  can  consider  it  as  an 
“adjustment to the lowest system distortion”). At its inception, for the first time the design 
of  an  amplifier  “sacrifices”  the  traditional  concepts  of  measurements  to  prioritize  the 
listener's real perception. From the standpoint of distortion, which is usually the weakest 
parameter  in  a  speaker,  it  is  also  a  setting  that  lets  it  achieve  the  maximum  of  its 
performance. 

Timbre  Lock®

  won  the  top  award  from 

Hi-Fi  News

,  England's  most 

traditional  audiophile  magazine,  the 

Industry  Award  2003  for  Best  Valve  Amplifier 

Innovation

, where it was described as a “

genius application that works; quite simply

”. 

 

Timbre  Lock

®

  sound  effects  do  not  operate  in  the  frequency  domain,  like 

conventional  tone  controls,  but  rather  optimize  the  residual  harmonic  distortion 
spectrum between the amplifier and the speakers. This unique adaptability allows you to 
control this critical interface of an audio system and thereby adjust instrumental tones, 
micro-dynamics,  general  definition,  bass  impact  and  articulation,  even  the  emotional 
involvement factors and musicians 'presence' in your listening room. 

 
Each  system  is  different,  as  well  as  each  listener  has  different  musical  values, 

sensibilities, and preferences and all of these variables define the best 

Timbre Lock

®

 

adjustment 

for  you.  The  fact  is  that,  when  you  get  it  right,  things  clearly  stay  in  place. 

Your musical appreciation and involvement will intensify and reach a higher level. But 
as  it  is  simply  impossible  to  predict  what  your  ideal  configuration  will  be,  we  can  only 
give you a rough idea of how to adjust it, as you will see below. 

 
An important note: The 

Timbre Lock

®

 adjustment should always be done without 

the amplifier playing music, that is, it must be without signal at its input.
