This tube amplifier is designed to provide powerful and clear sound, perfect for enhancing your music listening experience. It has USB-C audio inputs for fast and efficient charging Take a look—or a listen—at the last ten years here at Drop, and you’ll notice no shortage of award-winning amplifiers. Despite this decade-long discography, there’s one type of amp we haven’t touched. Now, it’s finally coming down the tube. That’s right: our first all-tube OTL amplifier is here—complete with a rock-solid DAC stage to complete any signal chain. Meet the Drop + xDuoo TA-84 OTL Tube Amp/DAC. Designed to deliver signature tube “warmth” without excess noise, this compact desktop powerhouse utilizes Output Transformerless (OTL) topology to manage signal without a transformer, greatly reducing distortion For the preamp phase, it features dual ECC-82 tubes; and for the power amp phase, it runs dual EL-84 pentodes—both popular options in the audiophile amplifier space. To hit that sweet spot with any set of headphones (or powered speakers), the TA-84 is also equipped with an ultra-precise stepped potentiometer for volume control, plus a gain switch to further control the output level. On Drop, and on your desk—it’s tube time. Finally.
