Brand: Electrocompaniet
The Electrocompaniet EMC-1 is a high-end audio amplifier designed and manufactured by Electrocompaniet, a Norwegian company, with a reputation for producing high-quality audio equipment since 1977.The EMC-1 is a tubed amplifier that delivers 120 watts per channel into 8 ohms and has a unique feature called "Zero Feedback" technology. This technology eliminates the use of traditional feedback circuits and instead uses a sophisticated active-path system for achieving stability, resulting in a natural and transparent sound.The amplifier's inputs include two pairs of balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA, with a choice of fixed or variable outputs. It also features input impedance switchable between low (10k Ohms) and normal (47k Ohms) and a short signal box circuitry that reduces electronic noise.The EMC-1's design philosophy is to keep the signal path as short and direct as possible, while using only top-quality components, such as output tubes (Mullard Ch311) and capacitors (Jubilee Mills Sowter HP O), resulting in a vivid and detailed sound while still preserving warmth and musicality.Overall, the Electrocompaniet EMC-1 offers exceptional audio performance and attention to detail, making it a top choice for discerning audiophiles seeking an immersive and lifelike music experience.
