ARMAGEDDON MK-1 - black

Headphones amplifiers » Reference Series

Equally adept at powering headphones and speakers, Armageddon exhibits authenticity of source material, harmonic balance, and fine resolution of space and scale.

Complete and natural musicality is realized through pure Class-A circuitry and thoughtful selection of discrete components, enabling superior audio performance.

The new Armageddon MK-1 represents a clear step up in sound quality over the previous model, featuring hardware improvements such as a larger, more efficient heatsink that allowed us to push the output stage deeper into Class-A operation.

A new input stage was engineered utilizing high-quality input transformers on permalloy cores, introducing additional fluidity to the presentation and improving the signal-to-noise ratio.

At the same time, this provides complete galvanic isolation between the signal source and the amplifier.

An additional and significant upgrade over the original version is the new 99-step attenuator, adapted from the Astraeus design concept. Providing four times higher volume control resolution, it brings unparalleled convenience to power management.

The aesthetic glow of the front panel symbolizes the brilliance of the sonic presentation, displaying Armageddon's many useful features and intuitive operation.

A single-ended PNP input stage combined with high-gain components enables sonic performance with subtle detail and warmth rarely experienced in solid-state amplifiers.

Its sound presentation is highly seductive, convincing you that you are listening to a high-end tube amplifier. The Armageddon MK-1 truly bridges the subtle sonic gap between tube and solid-state designs.

With its refined microdynamics and fluidity, it renders the musical presentation effortless and authentic.

Exceptional microdynamics and lightning-fast impulse response deliver a musical performance worthy of any audiophile's highest expectations.
