Bricasti M-25

General:

Bricasti USA manufactures High End audio equipment for the studio. There is a good chance that you own CDs or LPs that were mixed using Bricasti equipment. Especially the digital reverb processors are world-renowned. For about 10 years, Bricasti has also made High End equipment for the home. The first product is the excellently tested M-1 DSD/PCM DA Converter. The first Dual Mono DA Converter in the world that can decode all digital signals. The second Bricasti product is the M-28 Mono Power Amplifier. Then came the M-1 SE, the M-5 Streamer, the M-12 Source Controller and, of course, the fantastically sounding M-15 Power Amplifier. We present to you here the new Bricasti M-25, the Dual Mono version of the Bricasti M-15. The Bricasti M-25 is the challenger to other top stereo power amplifiers such as the Soulution 710, the Spectral DMA300RS, the Mark Levinson 532 and other top power amplifiers.

Technology:

The M-25 is derived from the exclusive and outstanding Bricasti M-15 Stereo amplifier and the M-28 monoblocks. The M-25 is best seen as the Dual Mono and more powerful version of the M-15. This starts with the M-25's chassis. The chassis is the foundation on which everything is built. The Bricasti M-25 is entirely built from CNC-machined aluminum panels. This chassis is completely resonance-free and therefore super stable, offering major sonic advantages. This is often overlooked, but vibrations cause changing sound quality and should therefore be avoided. The Bricasti M-25 is then equipped with 2 enormous power supplies, completely separate, discretely regulated, and these provide all parts with their own independently regulated power supply line. The structure of the Bricasti M-25 itself is completely balanced, from input to output. The output power seems modest, 150 watts per channel at 8 ohms, but the Bricasti M-25 is very suitable for all speakers, even those with difficult impedance. The Bricasti M-25 delivers continuously at 2 ohms 2 x 600 watts and you will be amazed at the power output and the ease with which this power is delivered. So you can also potentially drive very difficult speakers. The chassis remains sufficiently cool under all conditions.

Power and current settings:

The Bricasti M-25 can be set in 4 ways.

1. Completely off, large power button off. Unit is completely switched off. Consumption: 0 watts

2. Standby minimal. Large power button on. LED blinks quickly. Consumption: 1 watt

3. Standby normal. Large power button on. LED blinks slowly. Consumption: 80 watts.

4. On. LED is on continuously. Idle consumption: 170 watts. Unit plays music.

Inputs:

The Bricasti M-25 of course has XLR inputs, and in this case they are truly balanced inputs. The Bricasti M-25 is indeed completely balanced from input to output. A set of RCA inputs is also available. If you want to use the RCA inputs, jumpers must be placed in the XLR input to prevent part of the amplifier from not participating. The Bricasti M-25 has an adjustable, relay-controlled, input sensitivity circuit where you can optimize each front stage in 3 steps of 6dB. The Bricasti M-25 stands on special Stillpoints feet with ball bearings for decoupling.

Listening: The Bricasti M-25 has a clearly perceptible natural and analog character, and actually no distinctive "sound". The Single PSU M15 has all audiophile qualities such as open, 3D, fast and pure and a glowing bass reproduction, but does so without imprinting its own signature on the sound. The Bricasti M-25 sounds essentially the same, but has a bit more power and dynamics, more in the direction of the M-28 monoblocks. The Bricasti M-25 does not participate in the rage to sound as bright and fast as possible, with the result that the reproduction sounds glassy, thin and sometimes downright aggressive. This is not the case with Bricasti amplifiers. With Bricasti amplifiers, it is not about how much bass they give or how bright the dynamics are, no, it is about how these amplifiers render the music. An outstanding audio system gives you music that embraces you, not sound that attacks you. But dynamically, the M-25 really holds its own. Incredibly good. Just play a drum solo, loud, and then you will know what we mean. The Bricasti M-25 combines this fantastic quality with the audiophile characteristics of other modern top amplifiers, such as air, imaging and a 3D image. We believe the most important thing about the Bricasti M-25 is

that it is a rare audiophile amplifier that makes you as a listener feel calm. Bricasti stands for stress-free sound of ultra-high quality.
