Analog Domain Excalibur circuit

During the show I was invited to 'secret' location by the Angel and accompanied by his son Plamen and Fabian from Zellaton.

Half-hour later across Munich I witnessed *something so special and out of box, that will change the way we perceive high-end audio amplification. This is actually a matter of ultra high end and even as prototype an Uber amp candidate without a thought. For this actually I’ll have to figure out a new name. Transcending perhaps?

Sounds like mystical FM Acoustics marketing hype. I'm not sure that many of us across the pond see the value nor buy the line. cheers !

Let's say with lines like these ( I hope I am not infringing any law here) :
It felt like the new circuit has nothing to do with the sound but with pure energy of motion. In my twenty-two + some years of high-end audio I never heard of experienced something like this. The impact was not only emotional, but also ethereal

You are pegging some meters very hard... I am sure you know what meters we're referring to here ;)

Hey Frantz. Well you can scan my site and my writings. I'm rarely into any hype. For now I only get "warmed" to the maximum extend with some Kondo stuff and Robert Koda. This ampifier and its circuit goes beyond what I heard so far. But hey, I'll keep my emotions from any more pegging ;). Thanks.

I was listening at Zellaton's secret showroom their Studio Reference with Analog Domain integrated amplifier - the sound was just extraordinary.

But after I left - Zellaton replaced the AD integrated with Joachim Gerhard new electronics brand - and it just killed the AD integrated.

Are you referring to Joachim Gerhard, ex-Audio Physic? Does he now have another company? I have owned the Kronos speakers and still have great memories of them.
