  • Monblock amplifiers: dual topology, biamplification or bridge mode, one-of-a-kind accuracy and dynamics, also beating cost-no-object designs. Built-in high-pass filters precisely tuning and integrating the whole system.
  • Subwoofer: sealed, unique double wall, double voice coil driver working in parallel to enhance damping factor.
