Ensemble electronics are like very fine, hand-built musical instruments. They have the tonal purity, precision and musical expressiveness that are a direct consequence of the care and high standards bestowed on them. The more one listens into them, the deeper the fascination grows, as they communicate music in all its complexity so naturally and effortlessly. In fact, they behave like instruments in the hands of virtuoso musicians, carrying the listeners away by their sheer musicality, while making them forget the underlying technical mastery.

The design effort behind Ensemble’s FONOBRIO phono preamp is richly rewarded by stunning sonic results, revealing musical secrets hitherto hidden deep down within the groove of LPs. The signal handling part of the circuitry is a discreet, fully symmetrical design, superior to anything that an IC solution would offer.

FONOBRIO phono (RIAA equalized) preamps for MC and MM pickups use the same ultra-low noise, laboratory-grade power supply which is super fast and stable, has very low impedance and is practically free from ripple. Its big accu-like current reservoir and ultra-low noise transistors ensure that vinyl discs have never sounded so good.
