Product Description
I do not really know why I have driven this project forward not many years ago. I think I was busy with a
lot of other developments as well as trivial things like earning money for example. Perhaps mine is
simply unaware that their headphones and amplifiers are experiencing a large hipe for years.
Anyway, the beginning of 2014 resulted in discussion with colleagues that I would have some products
in my program that seemed almost ideally suited to put with the requirements of the headphone market
apart.
No sooner said than done.
First, the IMPEDANCER befell a technical revision, it was expanding the range of applications for the
RKV Mark 2 significantly, especially as a female teflon connector for headphones STAX was inter
alternates. The bias voltage was obtained from the voltage signal, so no external power supply is in
advance required. VERTO was born and VERTO laid the foundation for all further considerations in this
topic, culminating now in the product with the name LUMINARE.
I can excuse at this point only for me actually that I started so fundamentally important development in
the headphones sector so late (I slept through) and had thus deprived the public a potentially
groundbreaking product. Many of you have their money invested now possibly poorly because there
was nothing else on the market - that really am sorry.
But now back to Luminare.
It seemed to me as the basis for such a project, the OTL circuit of the RKV downright awesome. First,
they had already claimed stable over decades in the market and on the other they had characteristics
that should prove to be just the Luminare be extremely efficient and more full development. There would
be for example the superior damping factor, low internal resistance, high bandwidth, and not least the
low harmonic distortion he always particularly distinguished the RKV.
Now it was in principle "only" about output transformers so be interconnected in the OTL principle,
which can be obtained if possible upright with transformer all these benefits. The advantage to couple a
outpt transformer to an OTL circuit is that the repercussions and influences on the circuit itself ( either
headphones or transformers ) are considerably lower. And this brings a projection on presence in the
music, the listener will appreciate very quickly.
Everything else on this project was for me then just "routine". A new circuit board develop, expand the
circuit according to the light of all electro - physical principles and my over 45 years of experience in this
topic.
And ladies and gentlemen, I am more than satisfied with my work, I hope you are there also - Helmut
