THANK YOU,
for purchasing the Standel 25L15 “Vintage Plus” Musical Instrument Amplifier. The 25L15
“Vintage Plus” represents the very best in amplifier design and construction of the early
1950’s, enhanced and improved wherever appropriate.
Chances are, if you are reading this manual, you already know the history of the 25L15
and the role it and The Standel Company played in the development of the modern musical
instrument amplifier.
Inspiration for the 25L15 “Vintage Plus” came as a result of many requests from “the
players”— players who are fortunate enough to own one of only sixty-four originals, and
also by request from many who have experienced the “magic” but could not find an origi-
nal for sale.
As with the original, the Standel 25L15 “Vintage Plus” features hand selected components
and point-to-point hand wiring. The output transformer is a special remanufacture of the
original type. Resistors are a combination of carbon composition, metal film and wire
wound. The audio capacitors are polypropylene. In addition, the speaker is a carefully
selected JBL D-130 (used) speaker. The D-130 is the same found in the original amplifier
featuring all of its performance characteristics, 3-lb. AlNiCo V magnet, light-weight curvi-
linear cone, and 4" voice coil all combined with a super close voice coil gap which yields
highly articulate sound. All of the above is joined with a hi-capacity, ultra-clean power sup-
ply, dual chassis, Italian poplar cabinet.
Sonic excellence, versatility, and life-long operation are handcrafted into every Standel
25L15 we build.
Please take a few moments to read this manual carefully, as it contains information essential
to the proper operation of this unit.
We welcome your comments and encourage you to fill out the warranty registration found at
the end of this manual.
Thank you again, and please enjoy!
