The Classe Twenty-Five brings together world leading levels ofengineering, highest quality parts
and materials, and a never ending love for music, providing an unsurpassed blend of technology,
musical performance and value, while retaining the classic Classé look, feel, and individuality.

The Twenty-Five employs sophisticated circuitry using reference quality parts including one
percent custom metal-film resistors, polystyrene and polypropylene capacitors, leading-edge printed
circuit boards incorporating specially designed Classé UH C transfercharacteristics, and Classé custom
designed switches and relays with special contacts, providing quiet trouble free operation.

The Twenty-Five incorporates a massive custom toroidal transformer providing a voltage-current
ratio that removes the restraints of ineflicient loudspeakers, low impedances, and larger listening
rooms, providing dramatic lifelike dynamics, detail, and resolution, in an eflortless easy to listen to
natural fashion.

The main storage filtering is handled by large custom made capacitors totalling 120,000 UF filter
capacitance, andfeatures proprietary Classé ultrasonic filtering of both the main output transistor
stage, as well as the local supply to the low level diflerential amplifier stages.

Special custom designed heat sinks by Classé efliciently maintain lower output transistor case temperatures, allowing ultra high current and voltage with
a reduced number of devices, resulting in a faster and truly transparent response as well as total freedom of dynamic contrasts.

Both balanced and single ended operation are standard features.

Extensive research into mechanical isolation of sensitive signal path circuitry, as well as controlled impedances and voltages, dramatically reduced
vibrations causing microphonics, resulting in previously unattainable levels of transparency, resolution of detail, soundstage focus, and a clean natural timbre
and harmonics.

Unprecedented state of the art music reproduction, and levels of natural musical excitement of the Classé Twenty-Five have created an immediate stir, from
stereo publications and showrooms worldwide, to the most demanding audio critics and devoted music lovers alike, thus reinforcing Classé s philosophy of
repeated listening design sessions, and years of musical fine tuning necessary to approach the harmonics of music, typically achieved with only the finest quality
musical instruments.

Whether judged by its sonic merit or its handcrafted quality, the Classé Twenty-Five is clearly a reference quality product capable of complimenting the
finest audio system.
