Aesthetix Dione

As the driving force in your audio system, Dione is built to render your music with power and finesse. This hybrid design draws inspiration from the award-winning Atlas power amplifier and Mimas integrated amplifier. Featuring zero-feedback and differential balanced bridge outputs, Dione liberates your music with impact and inspiration.

Dione's design, derived from decades of research and development, leverages the strengths of cutting-edge tube and solid-state circuits. Featuring a vacuum tube input/gain stage (one 6922 / 6DJ8 per channel), followed by an output module consisting of a FET input stage, bipolar driver stage, and bipolar output stage, Dione is a masterpiece of hybrid synergy. 

The zero-feedback gain stage utilizes one 6DJ8 (6922) vacuum tube per channel in a fully differential, balancedconfiguration, preserving the dimensionality and transcendent performance captured in your favorite recordings. A single-ended input will be balanced at this stage, so the differential topology is taken advantage of even for single-ended inputs.

As a standard part of our build process, Aesthetix burns in their tubes for over 100 hours before testing to ensure the most accurate results. They then do a complete FFT distortion analysis on each tube and match the set for your amplifier to within .2dB of each other. Built to amaze you, Dione is ready for a lifetime of performance.
