The needs for service are changing.
With the “Smart HiFi” function, we guarantee an absolutely contemporary solution for optimal integration for streaming audio and TV entertainment.
The “Smart” models recognize what you want to hear thanks to “Audio Sense” and automatically switch to
the appropriate source. You always choose the
correct or previously defined volume and balance
position (left-right).
This means you can elegantly control the volume from a streamer via APP or your TV with its remote control.
Any IR remote control can also be learned for each input
to control the volume. Absolutely intuitive operation is guaranteed here at all times.
Loudspeakers act as a reactive load and reach impedances of less than one ohm for short moments
with each new transient response or with aperiodic signals. In these moments, real power from the
amplifier is required. High amplifier powers at
4 and 8 ohms are therefore not relevant.
In commercially available amplifiers, the current limiting circuit responds at impedances around 2 ohms,
which is why power amplifiers usually fail miserably.
The SmartAmps power amplifier section is designed for current stability, without current limiter circuits and without loudspeaker relays.
The unique, overcompensated attenuation
(neg. output impedance) in our amplifiers leads to a solution that takes into account the dynamic losses of the cable, crossover and the inertia of the sound transducers. Much higher definition of the membrane guidance and significantly more dynamics are the result of this
exclusive ROWEN solution.
The music itself seems more lively, the tension and expressiveness of every single note played
immediately creates the feeling of having the
musicians right in front of you.
The SmartAmp’s purely DC coupled circuit was developed to eliminate all coupling capacitors from the signal path. In combination with our single-ended
Class A design, this circuit guarantees absolutely
color-free playback of music.
Smart all the way
Which amplifier to use with Vonschloo speakers? The answer is simple!
Our SmartAmp is the perfect match.
It is a synergy of highly sensitive, fully discrete input stage and a powerfull amplification.
Add to it the new level of ease of use into your everyday life situation. It can be so simple!
The circuit layout of the SmartAmp
preamplifiers is based on
single-ended Class A technology.
This design is known from tube amplifiers and offers relevant sound advantages over conventional transistor technology.
With single-ended Class A, there are no crossover distortions, small signals are fully respected with all their details and the music is amplified in its natural purity.
The core of the development was the dynamically perfect sensitivity of the input stage in order to optimally take into account the importance of dynamic signal conversion and the psycho-acoustic fundamentals.
This is the only way to amplify music signals from all sources (CD, phono, ...) with unrestricted dynamics and transparency.
Special ODS circuits in the input stage
(optimal dynamic sensitivity) enable a dynamic sensitivity that is up to 10 times better than conventional transistor circuits and is still 2-3 times higher than triode tube circuits.
