Electrocompaniet AW180

The Electrocompaniet AW 180 M monaural power amplifier represents the ultimate in sound reproduction.

This is what record producers and engineers, audiophiles, and critics rely on to give them a faithful reproduction of the master recording.

No matter how many words we use, the true capabilities of the AW 180 defy explanation. You simply have to listen to it.

And you will be hooked.

The FTT floating transformer technology, capable of delivering twice the current of a conventional power supply, the top-of-the-line components, and the balanced connection allowing a bridged mode with additional amplifiers make the AW 180 M a unique and extraordinary product.
