Thermionic Culture Culture Vulture S15 Stereo 'Super 15' Valve Enhancer Standard

Introducing the Culture Vulture Super 15, the most advanced iteration of the Vulture series yet. Building upon the celebrated features of the 11th Anniversary edition, this powerhouse now boasts a 2-position Presence switch, offering enhanced versatility and control over your sonic creations. The Drive switch, now with three positions, includes a +10dB option strategically positioned between 'Normal' and 'Overdrive,' allowing users to infuse their sounds with a touch of crunchiness and heightened brightness for added impact. Expanding upon the Function switch's capabilities, the Super 15 introduces a special dynamic tunable mid-lift in the P positions and extra dramatically processed harmonics in the SQ positions, pushing the boundaries of sonic experimentation. For precise level adjustments, the Output Level controls now feature a -10dB attenuator, ideal for comparison purposes or managing high levels with ease.

Equipped with specially sourced Mullard M8100/5654 input valves, renowned for their low noise, increased gain, and extended lifespan, the Culture Vulture Super 15 ensures optimal performance and reliability. With upgraded dials reaching up to 15, providing even finer control over your sound sculpting, the Culture Vulture Super 15 stands as a pinnacle of valve-driven sonic exploration and creativity. Balanced outputs are available upon special order, catering to the most discerning audio enthusiasts and professionals.
