Raysonic Putting style into its design philosophy.
One glance at any Raysonic skill product is all that is needed to be attracted to it. Raysonic is a bold fashion statement in today's hi-fi designs. Traditionally, with tubes, a great sound equals to a great amplifier. Raysonic is bringing a new element into this formula: The idea that a great sound needs the complement of an elegant appearance.
New Product Introduction-Raysonic Red Maple
Never before has an advanced design been offered in this category. Raysonic Red Maple monoblock is a great amplifier by any measure, it has the best of tubes technology to deliver effortless power refinement, and total control for any loudspeaker system. It has a new radiant layout construction, tubes KT88 or KT120x10, 220 Watts per channel.
New Product Introduction-Reference 2
Raysonic Reference 2 is one of our supreme tube preamplifiers. As always, our design and compoment selection are to the highest standard. It comes in a separate power supply chassis: two power suppliers with two tube regulators for left and right channel. All circuitry is hardwired.

Raysonic CD -138CD Player:($1,950.00): This is a drop dead gorgeous, easy to use and eminently musical performer. Somepeople may feel that servers and other computer based music sources may be making CD players obsolete, but if you're still inclined to buy a new one this one would be hard to beat. It's a nice combination of appleaing aesthetics. Musical eniovment and reasonable pricing.(Dave Thomas)
Raysonic at SSI 2011 Montreal, Canada High End Audio Show From www.SoundStageNetwork.com Show Report by Doug Schneider
Canada's Raysonic show their new two-chassis 2 preamplifer and 26 mono amplifier that are part of their top-of-the-line Reference series. The 26 uses 12 Russian 7591AEH tubes and is said to deliver 180Wpc. The 2 retails for $11,500 and the 26 retails for $16,500 per pair. The construction looks extremely impressive and this rear shot shows the level of detail that extends to the back. The 2 and 26 support singled-ended and balanced connections.

Gunmetal glory from Raysonic
I’m not familiar with Raysonic, but their system sounded excellent: a large-scale presentation with good color and texture, elements of which may have been owing to the impressive-looking Raysonic Reference 26 mono tube amplifiers ($16,500/pair in Canadian funds). Each 180Wpc amp contains 12 Russian-made 7591AEH output tetrodes, configured for true balanced operation. (We were told that the loudspeakers, which bore the name Revolver, aren’t commercially affiliated with Raysonic.)
Even more appealing to this EL34 enthusiast—visually, at least—was Raysonic’s beautiful SP-300 integrated amp ($2600), on static display. I requested a review loaner, so perhaps I’ll soon have a better idea what this brand is all about.

Steven Leung hosted his Raysonic room as usual and featured the Reference 2 Tube Preamplifier which showed little visual evidence of being a tube unit. A separate power supply with dual mono construction is nearly identical to the control center and sat directly under it. All circuitry is hard wired, helping them achieve a 95dB signal to noise ratio, but also pushing the price up to $11,500. The Reference 26 fully balanced tube monoblocks ($16,500) with 180 wpc were intriguing with their polished circles above each tube and large ovals cut out of the side panels. Here again is an impressive S/N ratio at 103dB for this Class AB1 push pull design. These amps, as well as their CD player all have a tasteful intuitive design and can run either single ended or balanced. With music emanating from Revolver speakers, this was another of the Best Rooms at the show.
