Latest Signature and Platinum models available!
Introducing the Musical Design DM-100B, an exquisite audiophile power amplifier. Yes, there are some moderate powered amplifiers that have superb sound quality, but they are mostly tube-type and always expensive. And yes, there are low priced, modest powered amps from some of the mainstream companies, but they sound modest. You know the sort. The DM-100B is a new generation of amplifier with sound quality comparable to the finest products on the market, yet affordable. The DM-100B is an amplifier with world-class soundstaging and naturalness. It has superb inner detailing, yet without edge or bite. Oh yes, sometimes live music can have an edge and bite, then those dynamic shadings are captured in a way that just has to be heard. There is a glorious ability to render the subtlest of shadings, while cruising through complex passages. The sense of naturalness with human voice is stunning. Subtle clues are revealed, that tell you something about the vocalists and the emotion they felt during the performance. In fact, there is always an exhilarating sense of emotional impact whenever the software can deliver it, and yes, in a system up to the high standards of the DM-100B. Come to think of it, the sound is hard to describe. You know, like the sound of live music.
