M30 MONO AMPLIFIER, CLASSIC OR ARGENTO FINISH: £18000/Unit
PLATINUM FINISH: £21000/Unit
Advanced Dual-Differential Design: Utilises a fully balanced dual-differential architecture to achieve extremely low distortion and high power output for pristine sound clarity.
High-Current, Low-Noise Power Supply: This feature refines the power supply to handle high-current loads with minimal noise, enhancing dynamic range and detail.
Precision-Tuned for Low Distortion: This product is built with meticulous component matching and isolation to reduce interference and maintain accuracy at all volume levels.
Internally Balanced: Fully balanced signal path to maximise the benefits of dual-differential technology and reduce noise.
The M30 Monoblock Amplifier is the latest iteration of the powerful M28 Monoblock Amplifier in a more rack-friendly form factor. For those who desire the benefits of monoblock amps in a more compact size, the M30 boasts the exceptional performance of the M28 with a chassis height of only 10.5 inches and a width of 17 inches.
The M30 integrates the same superb current delivery as the taller M28 in a smaller, wider footprint for those desiring additional power in smaller spaces or rack-friendly set-ups. A single, powerful transformer and custom built capacitor banks render a beautiful sense of depth and dimension that needs to be experienced to truly be appreciated.
COMPACT
FORM FACTOR
Not all devices are balanced end-to-end. The M30's fully differential design delivers a fast, low distortion, open and harmonically accurate musical experience. Paired with any of the Bricasti lines of fully differential digital to analogue converters, a balanced system can be enjoyed from source to speaker.
TRULY
DUAL-DIFFERENT
The M30 chassis is designed to keep critical components in an optimal temperature range with the generous use of aluminium, crafted from solid blocks and a clever design that directs airflow through the top. Stillpoints isolation devices have been carefully designed directly into the feet for maximum isolation from vibration.
OPTIMAL
BY DESIGN
The M30 features a fully balanced, dual-differential design, with separate amplifiers for each channel. This configuration ensures exceptional signal fidelity. Preventing negative signals from contacting the ground significantly reduces electronic crosstalk, noise, and interference while improving the signal-to-noise ratio. The outcome is a more natural and lifelike sound at any volume level.

PLATINUM
BEAUTY
In addition to the standard Classic (Black) and Argento (Silver) finishes, an optional authentic Platinum finish is available for the M30. This finish involves anodizing the base aluminium metal, starting with a layer of copper, followed by nickel, and finally applying a 40-micron coating of pure Platinum in-house. The stunning mirror finish enhances the aesthetics and increases the chassis's mass with precious metals. This added weight improves performance, offering better tonality and resolution due to its effective RF rejection.
