"Regardless of your musical taste, the Rita-340 is an excellent amplifier that was always involving and most of all, a lot of fun to listen to. As an integrated, you save on rack space and the fact that you will only have to upgrade one power cord (if you are so inclined) and will not need to agonize over interconnects between amplifier and preamplifier. Not to mention the resulting synergy that comes from having it all in one box.
If you have wanted to get back into tubes or are thinking about trying it for the first time, the Rita-340 should provide years of musical enjoyment thanks to its robust construction and gentle use of its power tubes. The folks at Grant Fidelity have an excellent reputation for customer service, so they can help you with tube rolling and other system questions. We are very happy to give the Rita 340 one of our Exceptional Value Awards for 2009." - Jeff Dorgay, Tone Audio Magazine

Product Description:
This hand built, hand wired beautiful Rita-340 tube amp is in production now. There is nothing else like her available on the market for her looks and sound. Rita-340 is Class A Ultralinear design, punching out 35 watts per channel, but sounds more like a 200 w/ch amp and can easily drive any speaker load.
This Rita-340 is a sister version of our awarding winning Rita-880 but using EL34 tubes instead of KT88. The casing of Rita-340 is more affordable and down-to-earth - it comes with steel case and brushed aluminum faceplate.
The patented illuminated meters are, well, sexy. A nice blue glow over orange meters that you can see thru to the tubes behind. Rita-340 weighs in at around 100 lbs with her custom transformers.
