The new German brand, Electric Audio (a subsidiary of the well-known company in Gauder Akustik), presented the Electric Audio TAE 150 integrated amplifier and the Electric Audio PAE 150 stereo power amplifier.
The Electric Audio TAE 150 is an integrated stereo transistor amplifier with an innovative amplification circuit that does not require the use of a preamplifier and provides the shortest signal path.
The output power of the device is 2 x 130 watts per channel when working on a load of 8 ohms, 2 x 215 watts at 4 ohms and an impressive 2 x 365 watts at 2 ohms.
The amplifier's power supply is based on a large toroidal transformer with a capacity of 1,000 VA and a capacitor bank with a total capacity of 80,000 μF, which, according to the manufacturer, allows for a peak current of up to 70 amperes.
Electric Audio PAE 150 uses similar lighting technology, but since we have a two-channel power amplifier, the signal path has become even shorter.
The cherry on the cake is the ability to work together with Electric Audio TAE 150 to implement a Bi-amping configuration (the volume can be adjusted separately through the integrated amplifier).
Recommended retail prices and the timing of the new products' appearance on sale will be announced later.

European Audio Team (EAT) has released a new EAT F-Dur turntable, which is in many ways an upgrade of the well-known Forte S model. The new turntable weighs a solid 44 kg and sports aluminum anti-vibration supports with TPE damping.
Moondrop has released the Moondrop Horizon headphones – the new product is equipped (unlike previous planar models) with a dynamic ULT driver with a diameter of 50 mm, an inclined system arrangement and a dual-magnet design.
Moondrop has introduced new isodynamic headphones Moondrop Para 2. The use of a very large isodynamic driver with a diameter of 100 mm with FDT (Full-Drive Technology) and an ultra-thin 1.2 µm membrane etched from pure silver allowed to create a very impressive model.
Music First Audio has introduced the new Music First Audio LP 103 LCR phonostage – a highly flexible model, ideal for working with both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges.
For its 30th anniversary, AVID has released a new turntable, the AVID Relveo – the device sports a new conical suspension system for better vibration suppression and a dual-belt drive.
