The Engström Eric ultimate tube amplifiers have just arrived from Sweden. These massive, cost no object amps embraces best attributes of minimalist nordic design with a zen like purist aesthetics. Engström’s Lars amplifiers have already made their impact on the market with their iconic design cues and mesmerising sonic abilities. Eric amplifiers are following the established legacy, but pushes everything to the extremes.
My wife rarely comments on the incoming gear, but she was stricken by the Eric’s aura. Yes, these bespoke Tim and Lars’ creations would happily find their home in the MOMA timeless collection.
I’ve already connected them and started with the warm up, so stay tuned for the follow up. As always, here are the photos from the initial shooting.
