The Nace M1-7 ™ Amplifier.

The first chassis offerered by Trillium Amplifier Company is the Nace M1-7 ™ . It is first and foremost studio and stage-ready with peerless fidelity and sonic substance. Designed with the input of dozens of musicians and hundreds of hours of bench time, the chassis is feather-light, noise-free, and more efficient than any other Class A amplifier available. We've worked hard to design an amplifier that more accurately reproduces the guitar than any other on the market today.

The heart and soul of the amplifier is the proprietary Transflux Power Module ™ (TFPM ™) designed by audio/electrical engineer Art Nace. This component, in combination with Art’s unique circuitry design, allows the Nace M1-7 to offer an audiophile-quality signal-to-noise ratio of -65db while pumping out 7 watts of true single-ended, "Class A" power. The TFPM ™ is a regulated power supply, so voltage is constant at all times with no significant fluxuations. Simply put, the amplifier produces virtually none of the audible hum or buzz normally associated with tube amps and will have more available dynamic range than any other amp we've found.

Our chassis uses a proprietary bias system that is always in-phase with itself, making your guitar sound fuller and richer than ever before. This "agile" biasing system can safely handle a variety of preamp tubes (12AT7, 5751, ECC83, 12AX7) as well as power tubes (6L6 or 6V6). These changes can be made on the fly, without modification or re-biasing of the circuit. Varying the combination of tubes will substantially change the character, response, and available headroom of the amplifier. Because our bias is frequency independent, complex chords and voicings will not sound muddy.

The design of the circuit gives you what we call Sagless Response™ and a detailed articulation of your guitar’s signal. The amplifier is sensitive to even the most subtle nuances in your playing style as well as different types of guitar pickups. With no sag, the amplifier is free to replicate precisely what you play. In addition, the amp’s exceptionally wide “sweet spot” will allow you to create unparalleled tonal shading. Unlike other amplifiers that clog up the signal path with too many bells and whistles, the Nace M1-7 ™ will make each of your electric guitars sound unique.

All these features interconnect to make an amplifier that is ideal for miking in the studio or on stage as well as being enjoyed in your home or office. You’ll spend less time tweaking and more time enjoying the perfect tone you long for!

Aaron Manka Signature Combo

In July 2008, guitarist Aaron Manka of Shadyside Allstars approached us about commissioning a custom amplifier. Aaron wanted to simplify his cluttered stage setup and get away from using a complex pedal board. He also expressed a need for less stage volume. "I'm sick of being told to turn down by my bandmates and sound guys," Aaron explained. With his old rig, Aaron could barely turn up his amplifiers, leaving him with no natural tube saturation and an anemic tone that couldn't be helped with pedals.

Aaron and Steve whipped up a design that would include dual Nace M1-7 chassis nestled in a 4x10 cabinet. Each chassis would get a pair of speakers, allowing Aaron to use one amp at a time, or both simultaneously. Adding to the fun, Aaron chose to use a 12 AT7 and a 6L6 in one chassis, and a 12 AX7 and a 6V6 in the other. This allowed Aaron to have a sparkling clean tone on the left and a thick raspy overdrive on the other. Using an ABY pedal, Aaron was ready to rock.

Much to the joy of his sound engineer and bandmates, Aaron's stage volume is now manageable and a comfortable level for his bandmates to hear every note. To Aaron's pleasure, he can now perform with the saturated tube tone he craved without resorting to pedals.

Check out Aaron as he uses the amp for the first time.
