High-Definition Bluetooth Streaming with a Class A Tube Output Stage

The Advance Paris WTX-Tubes Bluetooth Receiver combines the convenience of wireless music playback with an unusual audiophile signal path built around vacuum tubes. Bluetooth 5.0 and aptX HD support enable high-quality wireless transmission from compatible smartphones, tablets and computers, while an independent Wolfson WM8740 24-bit/192kHz DAC handles digital-to-analog conversion before the signal reaches the tube-based analog output stage.

Instead of treating Bluetooth as a convenience feature alone, Advance Paris designed the WTX-Tubes to provide a warmer, more natural presentation from wireless sources. Two Raytheon 5703 military-grade subminiature tubes operate within a Class A output design, while tri-core processing combines a 32-bit dual-core processor with a 120MHz single-core processor. The result is a compact Bluetooth source designed to connect directly to an available analog input on a stereo amplifier or preamplifier.

Highlights & Benefits

• Dual Raytheon 5703 Tubes — Two military-grade subminiature vacuum tubes form part of the analog output stage for a smooth, musical presentation.
• Class A Tube Output Stage — Advance Paris uses a Class A design to give Bluetooth playback a more natural, analog-inspired sonic character.
• Wolfson WM8740 DAC — An independent 24-bit/192kHz digital-to-analog converter provides high-quality conversion before the analog tube output stage.
• aptX HD Bluetooth — Supports high-definition 24-bit Bluetooth transmission from compatible source devices while also supporting aptX, AAC and SBC.
• Easy Hi-Fi Integration — Stereo analog output allows the receiver to add Bluetooth playback to amplifiers and preamplifiers with a compatible line-level input.

Technology & Design

Raytheon 5703 Tube Stage — A pair of military-grade 5703 subminiature tubes is incorporated into the analog output circuit, giving the WTX-Tubes a distinctive architecture compared with conventional solid-state Bluetooth receivers.

Wolfson WM8740 Conversion — The independent Wolfson DAC supports 24-bit/192kHz conversion and is specified with a 117dB dynamic range and low-clock-jitter design.

Tri-Core Signal Processing — A 32-bit dual-core processor works alongside a 120MHz single-core processor to provide the computational performance needed for Bluetooth decoding and audio processing.

Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD — Support for aptX HD enables compatible devices to transmit 24-bit audio, while aptX, AAC and SBC provide broad compatibility across mobile and computer platforms.
