The Audion Sterling mk1 EL34 uses a single EL34 output valve per channel in an ultra linear single ended topology, producing 12 watts per channel. There are 5 line inputs, a line output and optionally it can be specified with remote control of the volume. The half width aluminium chassis with stainless top plate also features a fully enclosed housing on top for the mains transformer, helping reduce noise getting into the delicate audio circuitry.

Like all good single ended amplifiers these have remarkable speed and openness, and an ability to drive speakers that belies their low rated power output. A touch of feedback is used which helps both with linearity of the pentode valves as well as ameliorate impedance variations in the connected loudspeakers. 

Exceptional at it's price point, with speed, dynamics and musicality in spades. You really do need to hear what it can do in your system!
