The Ypsilon Phaethon neo is a flagship hybrid integrated amplifier engineered to deliver reference-grade purity, authority, and musical involvement within a single chassis. Built around a minimalist three-gain-stage architecture, it pairs a low-noise double-triode tube input stage with a custom transformer-based attenuator and a bespoke interstage coupling transformer. Its unique "bridged single-ended" output stage uses same-polarity N-channel semiconductors biased in Class A for initial watts, providing effortless speaker drive without crossover distortion. Outfitted with separate power supplies for the tube and output stages—utilizing five inductors, two power transformers, and four signal transformers—the Phaethon neo produces an ultra-low noise floor, transparent dynamic scale, and 3D soundstage placement, fully controllable via remote and a high-resolution TFT display.

Ypsilon Electronics is a Greek company that was founded in 1995 by Demetris Baklavas and Fanis Lagadinos, two passionate sound engineers with experience in electronic engineering and a career in setting up audio systems for live concerts. Working with live music, live concerts and especially a technical background in electronics led the two gentlemen to the idea of developing audio components that can reproduce music in a way faithful to the original recording.
