The Bricasti M15 stereo amplifier stands as the powerhouse driving force behind any high-performance audio system, and in particular, a Bricasti Design setup. Much like its bigger monoblock sibling, the M28, the M15 delivers an abundance of power precisely when it's needed most, forging a sonic path of least resistance from the source material all the way through to the speakers. This ability to effortlessly transfer energy results in a tangible and immersive listening experience that can be both heard and felt.
At the core of the M15's exceptional performance lies its fully differential and balanced architecture. This design approach ensures that the audio signal remains pristine and symmetrical throughout the amplification process, minimizing distortion and preserving the integrity of the source material. The result is a level of transparency and clarity that allows even the most subtle nuances and micro-dynamics to shine through, unveiling the true essence of the music.
But the Bricasti M15 is more than just a powerhouse – it's a work of engineering artistry. Every component and circuit has been meticulously designed and optimized to deliver uncompromising performance. From the robust power supply to the carefully engineered output stage, every aspect of the M15 has been scrutinized to ensure that it can deliver a seamless and effortless audio experience, even under the most demanding conditions.
Whether driving a pair of high-end loudspeakers or serving as the beating heart of a Bricasti Design system, the M15 stereo amplifier represents the pinnacle of audio engineering. Its ability to deliver an abundance of power while maintaining exceptional clarity and transparency is a testament to Bricasti's unwavering commitment to audio excellence. For audiophiles seeking the ultimate in sonic perfection, the M15 is a must-have component that will elevate their listening experience to new heights.
Dragon Cable Recommendation: We recommend pairing the Bricasti Design M15 Stereo Power Amplifier with the popular Silver Dragon Interconnect. Sold in Pairs, the Silver Dragon V2 is our top-of-the-line silver conductor-based interconnect. With a braided geometry and amazing shielding, this interconnect is a remarkable solution where noise isolation is key. The Black Dragon Power Cable is also recommended to provide the cleanest and unbridled power supply to your high-end amplifier.
Precise Control for Audiophiles
The power amplifier plays a pivotal role in the audio chain, tasked with amplifying the incoming signal and effectively managing the load presented by the loudspeaker while maintaining precise control over its back electromotive force (EMF). In the case of the M15, its sonic signature aims for transparency and clarity, minimizing distortion while delivering dynamic and expansive sound reproduction across all loudspeaker types without perceptible limits or compression.
A Premium Amplifier with Balanced Power
The M15 stereo power amplifier stands as a benchmark in analog power amplification, boasting an uncompromising design that delivers exceptionally low distortion alongside moderate power. Its distinctive truly balanced topology, a rarity in the industry, ensures optimum performance. When paired with our M1 DAC or M12 Source Controller, the M15 enables a fully differential signal path, from the converter all the way to the loudspeaker.
A Modern Amplifier for Modern Applications
The M15 aims to seamlessly integrate into your current setup with its compact form factor. It offers unique features like trim control, allowing proper gain staging critical for today's direct digital source amplification. Additionally, you benefit from the same sonic advantages as the M28 monoblock, with stillpoints isolation engineered directly into the feet.
