Rogue Audio

There are some in the audio community who see vacuum tube audio amplifiers as providing better sonics that the solid-state transistor-style designs. Unfortunately for those in the market for vacuum tube amps, a well designed product is more expensive to produce. As a result, the vacuum tube amplifier has been relegated to a niche market of audio enthusiasts. That is, until Rogue Audio burst on to the scene.

Rogue’s attention to the integrity of the audio signal path and power supply makes it truly superior that even the most discriminating audiophile will delight in the impeccable fidelity of a Rogue amplifier.

Best of all, Rogue's quality isn’t just skin deep. Ultra-high tolerance components, two-ounce copper circuit boards, and silver plated switches are just a few of the many features that put Rogue in front of the competition. Only the highest quality components are used, ensuring that nothing gets between you and your music.

A full function remote provides additional convenience.
