Icon Audio an introduction

As a traditional company located in Leicester, UK. We are devoted to the development and manufacture of valve amplification and associated hifi equipment such as speakers, headphone amps and phono stages.

Our philosophy in this "throw away" world with cheap nasty products is to create amplifiers and speakers that sound good, look good, are easily affordable and will last a lifetime. OK, so you may have to replace the odd valve, but in our amplifiers everything is replaceable right down to the transformers.

We are not anti-digital or solid state, but believe as many others do that a good analogue signal through a good thermonic valve amplifier still has a great deal to offer in terms of sound quality, flexibility and upgrading...

Icon Valve Amplifiers

Whilst we make no secret of the fact that our amplifiers are made in China (like several of our competitors e.g. QUAD Prima Luna etc). Our amplifiers are not just a branded OEM product but the result of a lot work here in Leicester to achieve the performance, sound and quality which results in our amplifiers being so highly regarded.

It has come to our attention that some unscrupulous dealers (usually on the internet) who are buying similar looking cheaper amplifiers and trying to pass them off as being the same as Icon Audio products. Don't be fooled, these amplifiers will definitely not have the performance that has won us awards and rave reviews that you have read about, and whether buying from Hong Kong or some anonymous dealer will not have the same established excellent back up service that you can read about in our customer feedback.

So please enjoy the site, take a look around and see what may suit you. For more info, upgrade and delivery details pls feel free to download associated product PDF's and Word doc factsheets. Other than this pls feel free to contact us via the methods provided below and within our contact page. We do demonstrate all equipment at our premises in Leicester and via a small dealer network (appointment only click here).

So why not hear what all the fuss is about........Hoping to see you soon!
