Mola Mola Makua Preamplifier
9490,00 €
The Mola Mola Makua preamplifier has been developed to offer a device of extreme transparency and perfect sound fidelity, while being complete. With 5 balanced (XLR3) and unbalanced (RCA) analog inputs, each of which can be configured as a line input or as a phono input using the application. The Mola Mola Makua preamp is particularly protected from external influences such as the quality of electricity or modulation cables.

Description
Analogue design for a digital age
With the knowledge in hand to design minimally invasive electronics without needing to be minimalistic, we decided that our preamp should be complete, very complete. The basic Makua is an extremely transparent gain stage and a programmable routing matrix. The chassis has ample room to fit optional extras, most notably a DAC and a phono stage. The 6 preset buttons are programmable via RS232 or Bluetooth to access any combination of channel, processing and routing. In a system with mainly digital sources, the preset buttons would be programmed to select between them. Vinyl lovers on the other hand might want to use several buttons to select the same turntable but with different EQ settings to suit their large collection of historic LP’s.
All five inputs are switchable between XLR and floating RCA connections, and all can be assigned as either phono or line. All stages in the Makua use discrete amplifier modules in a little known topology called “single-ended driven differential”. Compared to doubly executed signal paths, this structure prevents noise from propagating all the way through. The Makua is amazingly immune to influences like mains quality and choice of interlinks. The relay-based volume control directly controls the gain of the output stage. Dynamic range and linearity of this arrangement is much greater than those of stepped attenuators. Operation is smooth and entirely glitch free.

About Mola Mola
Truth is Beauty
All simple circuits change the signal audibly, so one has to get to grips with more complicated ones that don't. We analyze every sub-circuit mathematically and look for ways to eliminate every error term. When the practical circuit measures as predicted, we listen to search for unexpected sources of coloration. These are then included into the math's and the whole process repeats.
After every stage has proven immaculate performance, the same is done with the whole product and so problem spots get methodically rooted out before they hide themselves and become “audible but not measurable”.
The result is something never before heard of in high-end audio: amplifiers and converters whose output signal cannot be distinguished, by ear, from the input signal. So what does that sound like? In a few words: natural, nimble, rich and musically enthralling.

Mola Mola Kula Integrated Amplifier
11990,00 €
The Kula integrated amplifier represents all the know-how of the Mola Mola. It of course takes up the aesthetic codes with its case cut in a piece of aluminum, very sober in the shape of a wave. It also takes up the audiophile philosophy of its designers: add nothing, take nothing away from the music. Here too, as in the Kaluga models, the amplification section is in class D and more precisely in N-Core technology which can be found in the entire Mola Mola range.
