The Amethyst strongly ressembles to the eletronic we had all dreamt of but never did dare asking for it.

Pierre Fontaine and Lauren Thorin reviewed the Amethyst.
As of today, the Amethyst is the most sophisticated control electronic dedicated to high fidelity available on the market. The inventory of its possibilities and connectivity would most likely have inspired Jacques Prévert.
The Amethyst strongly ressembles to the eletronic we had all dreamt of but never did dare asking for it.
Without the acoustic correction system engaged, the Amethyst already behaves like an excellent preamplifier/converter which does not demerit at all at the proposed price. As we engaged the room correction system, we discover a whole new world we had not yet imagined.
A real BARGAIN
The Amethyst is not a cheap product, but let's not forget that it combines the functions of 4 different products (preamplifier, DAC, network renderer and acoustic correction), that it is pretty, user-friendly, very well built and built in France. Then no, I am telling you, the Amethyst is in fact a real BARGAIN.
