introduction
Grandinote congratulates with you for the excellent choice done, buying this
exclusive amplifier, masterpiece of style and technology.
You listened the extraordinary musical caracteristics of “Magnetosolid®” amplifiers:
neutral tone, rich details and harmonics, high speed, big extension, big tight....
without intermodulation distortion, with surprising dynamic range, insuperable
coherence, natural sound...
hese and other qualities are the result of studies and extensive research about the union
and interaction of solid state components with ferromagnetic machines.
he fusion of the words: "Magnetic" and "Solid" is the born of "Magnetosolid®”, the
point of union of all amplifiers by Grandinote.
his exclusive product is increased at the top of music caracteristics, thanks to
Magnetosolid-VHP output stage, the result of the maxim application of Magnetosolid®
technology.
Magnetosolid-VHP uses very expensive ferromagnetic components, builded on
Grandinote's specificatons.
product descrition
Grandinote supremo is a full-dualmono stereo integrated amplifier. he two
sections of the two channels are totally indipendent between them.
For this motive, Supremo need two power supply cables, one cable for each channel.
Grandinote Supremo by Magnetosolid-VHP technology claim musical qualities of tight
and extension like solid state amplifier, preserving musicality, sweetly and naturality like
valuable tube amplifier.
