Mastersound
Mastersound is an Italian manufacturer of vacuum tube amplifiers founded in 1994 by Cesare Sanavio and his sons Luciano and Lorenzo, building on decades of Cesare's earlier work designing output transformers and sound systems. The company hand builds every amplifier at its facility in Arcugnano, near Vicenza, and winds its own output transformers one at a time, a technique the Sanavio family considers central to the brand's sound. Mastersound's integrated and monoblock amplifiers, including models built around the 300B and 845 triodes, have earned reviews from Stereophile, Hifi Pig, and The Ear, and the company continues to operate as a small, family run workshop today.
