Audma Maestro HPA1

AUDMA MAESTRO HPA1 is the first amplifier on the market featuring the special characteristics offered by the ELISA circuit. 

The MAESTRO HPA1 is powered by AUDMA’s proprietary ELISA (Electronic Loudspeaker Imaging Simulating Amplifier) technology. ELISA recreates the immersive 3D soundstage of a stereo loudspeaker system, making your headphones deliver an experience akin to a full surround sound setup. Adjust the virtual speaker distance and angle using the front panel controls for a personalized listening experience. 

It is a mature device which responds to the most sophisticated needs of top Hi-Fi and Hi-End audiophiles to take their listening experience to the next level:

    automatic voltage change

    dual mono power supply with custom-built audio transformers

    AKM AK4490REQ DAC chip with VELVET SOUND™ technology

    Nichicon electrolytic capacitors

    Wima Red series audio capacitors

    Alps Alpine motorized potentiometers

    Alpha switches

The amplifier features two stereo analog inputs (unbalanced RCA and balanced XLR) and three digital inputs (RCA coaxial, TOSLINK optical and USB 2.0), ensuring maximum connection versatility to the most diverse audio sources, both vintage and modern.

The output can be connected to Hi-Fi systems, TVs or other amplifiers by means of the LINE XLR or RCA output, and to headphones using Pentaconn connectors, 6.3 mm jack (with mini jack series adapter) and XLR 4-pin.

The front panel of the AUDMA MAESTRO HPA1 is equipped with courtesy lights, which make it easy to use even in the dark.
