Who Amadana are
The company builds home and personal devices where casework and controls get as much attention as the circuit. Its audio line now includes a battery cassette player with a smoked front panel and mechanical switches that give clear click feedback. Amadana tunes the audio circuit for the format and ships a matching wired headphone, so the player works straight out of the box without extra gear.
