About Neunaber Technology

Neunaber Technology operates under the following principles:
  • The best solutions are simple and elegant.
  • While music is art, audio is a science that is understood.  It is not black magic.  Be skeptical of those who lead you to believe otherwise.
  • Digital is not inherently bad.  It is only a tool, like vacuum tubes or solid-state analog.  It is how you use the tool that makes the result sound good or bad.

How is Neunaber Technology Different?

Neunaber Technology is certainly not a mass-producer, but we don't see ourselves as boutique either.  We strive to practice the best from each approach:
  • We prefer to remain small and agile.
  • We design for maximum value—using the best parts and practices, but only when it results in a noticeable improvement in sound, appearance, or longevity.
  • We use modern design and assembly techniques, including double-sided PC boards and surface-mount components.  Despite what others may claim, modern assembly techniques—when properly implemented—are far more reliable than "vintage" techniques (i.e., hand wiring, point-to-point, etc.).
  • Whenever practical to do so, we use local suppliers and buy parts from domestic sources.  We work with local companies for PC board fabrication, assembly, and enclosure drilling.
  • We believe that making great products is the best marketing strategy, and we rely on happy customers to spread the word.
  • We continually look for new ways to improve, so please send us your feedback!

We care about the environment

Our products are lead-free and RoHS compliant: no lead is used in the components that make up the products, and no lead is used in the assembly process itself.  When possible, we reuse the clean packaging materials we receive.  Whatever we can't reuse, we recycle.
