MACTONE
Mactone was founded in 1964. For the next 60 years, Mactone has specialized in manufacturing vacuum tube audio amplifiers and preamplifiers. Mactone has continuously manufactured vacuum tube amplifiers longer than any other company in Japan.
Mactone has always focused on improving sound quality with research and development, and has developed its own circuit configuration. Also, when designing output transformers, including power transformers, we clarify the interrelationship between the circuit and the output tube, and determine the optimal winding method and core quality that improves sound quality.

Mactone Receives 2023 Positive-Feedback Writer’s Choice Award!
“I’d say the current Mactone XX-440 and MH-120 offer particularly refined performance, a luxurious sound quality that is evocative of the musicality of the best in Golden Age designs, but also exceeds their level of refinement and overall performance in every way.”
“I absolutely adored the performance of the Mactone XX-440 line preamplifier and 65-watts per channel MH-120 stereo amplifier combination with my Tannoy Westminster Royal SE loudspeakers during their visit.
Mactone’s hand-crafted, point-to-point wired, premium vacuum tube amplification designs are sure to impress, as they possess a beautifully natural tonality, dynamic prowess, and a liquid and refined presentation, that represents vacuum tube amplification at its finest.”

Mactone XX-7000 preamp and MH-120 amplifier reviewed in Part-Time Audiiophile
“I try to be a calm person most of the time, but the Mactone MH-120 and XX-7000 have exposed me to a new level of tube amplifier performance, one that makes me wonder if I should just stop right here. Highly recommended, and an Editor’s Choice Award is mandatory.”
