The MP11 represents the first modern-day effort to utilize the proven superiority of the vacuum tube input stage connected to an amazing ICEPOWER® output stage. It uses a 12AU7 front-end tube. Its purpose is to provide the differential signal for true balanced operation. Tubes are superb in preamp stages – they are linear and circuits may be kept very simple. When the very frail signal coming from the source passes through very few devices that are inherently linear, less damage will be done.Careful attention has been given to the tube power supply. A stable, well-regulated power supply is used throughout the preamp section. The MP11 uses a three terminal IC voltage regulator to supply the heaters of the vacuum tube. This ensures that the cathodes of the tube are operated at a constant temperature regardless of the current AC line voltage. The characteristics of each triode section, and therefore the voltage gain of each amplifier stage, are strongly affected by the temperature of the cathodes. Regulating the voltage supplied to the heaters also helps to minimize tube generated noise in the circuitry. Regulation of the high voltage supplies is also necessary for optimum preamplifier performance.
Utilizing a unique design topology capable of adapting to any of today's audio and video system needs and reproducing sound with the unmistakable Monrio rhythmic drive and musical integrity.At the first sight the MP11 Monoblock Power Amplifiers may appear receptively small, but don’t be misled by their surprisingly compact size - each Monoblock is capable of generating 500 watts of peak power into 4 Ohm. They will optimize the performance of any loudspeaker and create an utterly stable three-dimensional soundstage with realistic dynamic response and a wealth of musical detail.The MP11 offers an unprecedented alliance between power and efficiency in a small and elegant chassis. It features iron die-casting, combined with aluminium extrusions and covers, which together result in a rigid case that offers great immunity to the effects of external vibration.With both balanced and single-ended inputs, the MP11 offer compatibility with any source component. Compact size and light-weight are perfect for multi-channel use, the MP11 offers maximum system flexibility for use in audio-video applications and, most important, its very low operating temperature allow for flexible placement in any listening environment.Switchable XLR and RCA inputs, twin pairs of five-way binding posts for biwiring and a convenient Stand-by button on the front panel complete the exterior. MP11 Monoblock System is a unique listening experience.
