All In One
Tube integrated amplifier with DAC. The Ernestolo has a big brother - the Ernestolone! The tube preamp is completely separate from the power amp, as is the 24/96 Hz digital-to-analog converter - all in a housing only slightly larger than that of the Ernestolo.
Small but mighty!
The Ernestolone is a tube amplifier with an integrated DAC for headphones and loudspeakers in mini format. The tube preamp section of the Ernestolone contributes to its wonderfully natural, sweet, silky midrange and high-frequency range and rich, deep bass. The Ernestolone is one of the smallest and most beautiful tube amplifiers in the world!
