We are discussing production of a new design which allows full use of the on/off button on the amplifier while the soft-start is in-line with power and the amp. Unfortunately, this design did not work as expected - and we don't know for sure if the newer design will ever be made!

We are offering this unit FREE (+ shipping) to original owners of Virtue ONE/TWO amps. Use coupon code: V1V2SOFTSTART at checkout. If you bought your amp used, thank you for supporting us by buying this unit at full price.
This soft-start circuit, when placed between the power supply and the amplifier, protects the power switch from high current turn-on rush as well as extending the life of the amplifier overall. It is rated up to 15A @ 30V, proportionally less current at higher voltages up to 70V.
