CELEBRATION 10W PURE A-CLASS Single-Ended 300B Mono Tube Amplifier
The legendary 300B power triode has long been the first choice of
many serious music listeners because of the natural, emotional
presentation of amplifiers using this power tube. Our design is
carefully tailored to furnish ideal drive conditions for the output
tube, opening the door to dramatic new levels of low-end articulation
and dynamic excitement for single-ended 300B amplifiers. The
Celebration provides full-bodied musical reproduction that you will
appreciate for a long, long time. The result of our intensive research,
the Celebration, is a completely modern amplifier dedicated to the
timeless quest for musical enjoyment.
The Celebration is able of 10 watts in pure A class in single-ended configuration built around a 6SN7 on input stage and EL34 as driver. The power supply uses 5U4G tube rectifier circuit followed by a massive pi network using the highest quality caps and custom made choke. The Output transformer uses a double Hi-Grade Iron-Silicon for superb frequency reproduction and bandwidth. With this newly designed custom output transformer we are able to achieving highly delicate and precise sound reproduction faithful to the original recording.

The Theatre - 70W mono power amplifier
The Theatre mono power amplifier maximizes all our efforts with more
power, more dynamics and greater flexibility. The full-sized chassis
allows us to use larger transformers and bigger caps and resistors,
delivering greater control and detail.
The result is 70 watts of pure pentode output per channel built around a pair of 12AU7 on input/driver tubes and four EL34/6CA7 power tubes in parallel push-pull configuration. We do implement a very modest amount of global negative feedback to make the amp rock solid. We also use a high power, low impedance, solid state rectification circuit followed by a massive pi network using the highest quality caps and custom made choke. In the signal path are only high quality metallised polypropylene coupling capacitors.

Onda AM/FM Analogue Tuner
From the moment of switch on, a Phosphorus green emerald glow slowly
emanates from the Onda's display. The sense's are divided between the
sweet sound of the notes that are captured in the ether and yet
reproduced authentically to the original. We searched to produce a
product that aesthetically has the unmistakable style of the
traditional, and yet encloses in its core many innovative and at the
same time revolutionary technical solutions.
The sound superiority finds expression in all of our products and is the result of our long acoustic search aimed to continually improve of all the characteristics Hi-Fi .
Planned and constructed in order to make listening from the radio an experience of optimal enjoyment, the ONDA is a tuner that uses an analogue section of reception with the visualisation of the level of tuning strength by means of magical eye type valve, the 6E5C.
The widely graded and easy to read tuning scale allows the immediate identification of the frequency.
The precise tuning is a tactile movement of the solid control knob which allows both speed and finesse in one flowing operation.

Matrix Digital to Analogue Converter
The Matrix is designed completely in house by Synthesis to represent a
new level in audio realism. It represents three years of meticulous
work from drawing board to finished item.
Why have we taken so long? Because we didn’t want to create a DAC that boasted the worlds most impressive features, or heralded a new level in stereo detail, we didn’t even want it to look like it just landed from Saturn with swages of aluminium and more lights than an oil rig at night.
What we wanted, was to get back to the very basics of music itself.
We wanted it to sound like the performance was there as your intimate companion, to capture its very sole and transport it to you, so that you too could live the music.

Synthesis Melody Bookshelf Speakers
The Melody is a bookshelf speaker with a 2 ways rear ported bass reflex
design. Created entirely from the Research and Development of
Synthesis using sophisticated CAD programs and extensive listening and
fine tuning, the Melody trace's the same principles that characterise
our other models.
Constructed of wood to an elevated density, it is cut by computer control, therefore guaranteeing absolute precision in the manufacturing and building process.
In order to increase the rigidity of the design, the panels are glued in such a way so as to eliminate standing sound waves within the inner cabinet. Such attention to detail allows us to obtain a further increase in the rigidity of the panel and so an even smaller overall resonance factor. Thanks to this design we are able to obtain extended frequencies down to 70 Hz and we are also able to delineate the high frequency range up to 20 kHz. More over the tweeter possesses the ability to reproduce a rich, precise and incredibly natural sound.
With an efficiency of 88 dB and a power handling of 80 watts rms, the Debut is at home on most amplifiers. The aim of Synthesis was to construct a speaker that would recreate for the customer the most realistic sonic reproduction. It is in this reproduction that music is loved, be it rock or classical, blues or jazz. This ability follows for either Audio or for Home Cinema.
