The Performance Series were first introduced at the Winter NAMM Show 2006 to critical acclaim. The design goals for the line were to offer uncompromised sonic quality and deliver it an affordable price. Utilizing many of the design elements found in the UL Series line, the Performance Series maintains its own unique sound and look. Nick Epifani and his design team employed all types of scientific disciplines in designing the Performance Series products. Working together on the acoustical, mechanical and electrical engineering aspects of the line, they focused on creating an amplifier solution where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. All of the components are carefully selected to meet strict design and manufacturing specifications. The Performance Series solution is really an integrated audio system whose major components were designed to interact with one another to ensure optimum performance.
