M204 Monoblock Amplifiers
M204 replaces M203 - Bigger transformers and 20 db lower noise floor for better sound - User replaceable power module for better reliability!
“MSB's Platinum is, quite simply, the best amplifier we've ever heard.”
Paul Messenger, HI-FI CHOICE August 2009
Editors Choice, 5 stars and on the cover!
MSB does it once again! This 200 watt monaural Amplifier uses the MSB strategy of design simplicity with a totally new architecture. There is not another AMP in the world like it.
Built out of Desperation
Designing the Platinum DACs we found that there was not an amplifier available that could let us hear everything that our DAC is capable of. Some amplifiers would hold an image together well with multiple instruments playing but were not capable of fully resolving the individual instruments. Other amplifiers would simply sound wonderful until more than two or three things started happening at once! We even listened to a few amplifiers that were completely missing notes in low frequencies! The M-200 amplifier was designed from the ground up to be full of resolution, dynamics, to hold a solid image for each instrument no matter how many are going at once, with out being harsh or edgy. We needed a Reference Amplifier, and that is what we built! Next we listened the suggestions of our customers and added some more features and the M202 was launched. Then with another year of experience the M203 was instroduced with more fins for cooler operation. Now we have further refined the AMP. The M204 is a little bigger, with amazing new transformers, grounding designed to interfacae with our isolation base technology, an new lower noise input stage - 20 db lower than the M203. Amazing.
