Audionet HEISENBERG
SCIENTIST SERIES – ULTIMATE MACHINE HEISENBERG
The machine:
Designed by German design legend Hartmut Esslinger of Cupertino fame, our new über-performance power amp HEISENBERG combines Audionet’s unique electronics, stratosphere version, with a design quality that has not been seen in the realms of highenddom before.
The patented FLOATING PANE DESIGN encorporates the ultimate audiophile qualities.
One amp to rule them all – HEISENBERG rises high above anything, anywhere – even our serial show winners ART and VIP (2015 “best sound” at RMAF, AXPONA, T.H.E.SHOW and HIGHEND).
Special features HEISENBERG
- Mono power amplifier for absolute channel separation.
- Magnetically and capactively optimized circuit and device design without any ferro-magnetic materials.
- Floating Pane Design for optimal resistance against microphonic effects and temperature stability.
- The floating panels of the body are resonance-optimized by pads on an aluminum frame.
- Mounting and bolted assembly of transformers made of stainless steel.
- Air Flow Design circuit boards for an optimum of cooling and stable quiescent currents.
- Galvanic separation of all analog circuits by opto couplers.
- Audionet ULA technology (Ultra Linear Amplifier) for real-time linearization of distortions.
- Rhodium Cinch jacks and Rhodium torque speaker terminals by Furutech.
- DC coupled with no sound diminishing capacitors or coils, shortest signal paths.
- Lossless signal transport via massive, gold-plated copper rails to the speaker terminals.
- No speaker relays.
- Two separate power supplies for device control and detection / monitoring of zero-crossing of mains power.
- Four power supplies for positive and negative power currents, separate for input & driver stage and power stage.
- Two encapsulated und decoupled 50 VA toroid transformers for input & driver stage.
- Two encapsulated and decoupled 1,200 VA toroid transformers for the power stage – ensuring a perfect power supply.
- Low impedance-optimized power capacitors with a total capacitance of 200,000 µF.
- Microprocessor controlled protection circuit with separate power supply, detecting high frequency, DC, overload and overheating.
- Rhodium fuse for mains and secondary side.
- Rhodium mains connector by Furutech.
