Our products are the result of more than 10 years of research and development process.
Convinced that it was possible to go further using modern technology, we used our professional experience to create the first prototype. The feedback we received from world class audio professionals was such that we decided to create B AUDIO in 2016.
The founding team consists of two brothers, both engineers, Cédric and Sébastien, supported by their father Gerard, who passed on his passion for music and technology to them.
Cedric is an electronics and signal processing expert with extensive experience in the design of precision measurement equipment for electrical networks.
Sebastien has worked on numerous research projects, notably at Mercedes-Benz, and has specific experience in the field of tuning and testing.
B AUDIO is located in the east of France, in the heart of the Alsatian vineyards.
While recent technological advances promise to deliver even better performance, their implementation is often disappointing.
With a fresh perspective, we introduced new circuits to eliminate multiple sources of signal variation. From this point of view, 10 years of research and development have been devoted to reconsidering all stages of the audio reproduction chain.
The result: a faithful transcription of the artist's message, rich, detailed and dynamic, with a live presence that fully restores the emotion of the concert.
Our electronics as well as the mechanical components of our products are completely developed in-house. To guarantee the highest quality standards, their production is carried out in France by carefully selected local suppliers.
The final assembly is carried out by us in our workshop.
Taking full advantage of current technical capabilities, our electronics incorporate decisive technological advances in the interests of sound reproduction. From scratch, all options were explored without intended ideas before retaining the most relevant solutions.
Company technologies:
SJR (patented)
One common source of audio artifacts in digital-to-analog converters is jitter present in the source signal.
By rethinking the digital front end of our converters, we have developed a process that completely eliminates source jitter. By ensuring optimal performance of the conversion circuits, SJR provides unparalleled digital-to-analog conversion quality, regardless of the digital input signal format.
IOD
The "Intelligent Output Drive" topology at the heart of our amplifiers provides the benefits of Class AB operation while maintaining the absence of crossover distortion associated with Class A. It features an intermediate drive stage equipped with 6 transistors along with local feedback.
ASP
All pre-amplification stages present in our products perate in a 100% balanced mode and distinguished by the absence of coupling capacitors. Named "Analog Symmetrical Preamplifiers", they are synonyms for absence of distortion and electronic noise.
If you're looking for high quality amplifiers, preamps and DACs that will last a long time and deliver superior sound, then B.audio is a great choice. They combine high quality, wide selection and excellent customer service, making them one of the best companies on the market.
