PREAMPLIFIER

Design Philosophy

From a distance you can see that the design of the Plinius products is more than 
an applied styling exercise to the front panel.  We have started from the ground up 
to produce a casing for our electronics that is unrivalled in its physical strength and 
visual simplicity.  

Wherever possible we have reduced the number of parts needed and then invested 
massively in refining and producing the remaining parts to the highest quality 
achievable with state of the art computer controlled machines allied with expert 
craftsman.  Examples of this approach include the hydraulically formed corners on 
the amplifiers giving much greater strength and the one piece housing for the remote 
control that looks, feels and genuinely is robust. 

As with music that you are not familiar with, truly innovative new designs can take time 
to understand and enjoy.  How often have you heard music that you were first unsure 
of, that over repeated listening, has become a firm favourite?

Our designs are fundamentally different to many other companies, and we hope that 
you will take the time to explore their unique character and qualities because we have 
not made them different simply to be different.  We genuinely believe that their visual 
and tactile qualities do improve the experience of listening to music and that is our 
design goal!
