How does one improve upon a "Classic" Better yet; How do you Improve on the classic that is the Manley ELOP?

Well, for starters, Manley has now added a 3:1 compression ratio feature which opens up the doors to greater versatility, especially for 2-buss applications. The 2016 ELOP+ has been completely re-engineered from the ground-up, beginning with Manley's amazing modern high voltage switching power supply purpose-designed for their vacuum tube audio circuits. With careful reference to Manley's sonic past, they have deployed their highest performance vacuum tube line amplifier and White Follower output stage in this new version all housed in a build-efficient chassis behind a drop-dead gorgeous precision-CNC-milled faceplate, all proudly made in the United States, of course (Chino; not China!).

The new Manley ELOP+ is everything you love about the legendary ELOP, plus!
