The Grandinote Demone power amps have just landed at Mono and Stereo HQs. A lot of people are interested in these fully balanced Class A (60W) no-compromise solid-state power amplifiers from Italy. Why? Demones implements unique approaches like Massimiliano Magri’s proprietary Magnetosolid® VHP technology, no feedback circuits, direct coupling stages with no capacitor used, etc.
As it becomes a practice I couldn’t keep my enthusiasm bottled and unpacked them at once :). So what are the very first few songs telling!? Mamma Mia! The unaltered rawness that translates to the music’s purity, unexpected lighting fast speed, tube-like (but not saturated) natural warmness and impressive horizontal and vertical expanse….
