Dynacord Eminent II Tube Amplifier
The instrument
Dynacord launched the Eminent II amplifier on the music market in 1966 in an anthracite grey plastic housing. The tube-equipped device was the more powerful version of the Eminent I with a sine wave output power of 80 watts. It could be combined with loudspeakers from the S series and with the Echocord Mini. From 1968 it was partially transistorised.
