Italian Style in Class "A"
"Our philosophy is simple:
we want to produce amplifiers which arouse emotions in the listeners,
every piece of music should arouse exactly the emotions the artist who composed it
and the performer who played wanted to convey.
The listeners should feel immersed in the music, absorbed
in the execution of the piece enjoying the details of the voices and of the instruments
in the most natural way, feeling emotions…"
In the 1950s, Cesare Sanavio graduated as an electronic expert with a thesis on output transformers in tube amplifiers. His first major consultancy in the field of radio and television equipment, at a time of great ferment, comes from an American company that leads him to travel to various foreign locations. Originally in Brazil where he also reaches the family, then in Chile and finally in Paraguay, where he also deals with the design and installation of sound systems (initially amplified by tube systems) for churches and shops. It's in those years that his son Luciano began his first experiences in the art of building tube amplifiers .
Cesare come back in Italy with his family and for several years he works as a consultant for some hi-fi companies.
After fifty years of experience in the design and construction of audio systems, and refinement in the construction of its special output transformers, he decides to found MastersounD together with his sons.
The first "2-11 A" amplifier of the brand "MastersounD" receives unanimous consent from the public and the operators and allows the company to become a reference on the market. After the disappearance of Cesare, Lorenzo and Luciano, continue their father's project for many years and at the end of 2015, thanks to new partnerships aimed at increasing international affiliation, the new "Mastersound srl" is born.
Who we are:
MastersounD today has a new and largest headquarters in Arcugnano in the province of Vicenza and is made by people ready to seize new challenges, united by the same profound passion of Cesare Sanavio.
Luciano Sanavio (Production Manager) thanks to his engineering studies, his natural ability and curiosity, gets ever more exciting results with his production staff. MastersounD output transformers designed and built entirely by our laboratories, express unmatched bandwidth values and are therefore recognized globally.
Lorenzo Sanavio (Administrative Manager) with his passion and ability has successfully enabled the introduction of family amplifiers around the world, enabling Luciano's continued research activities.
The MastersounD team has been enriched by the new partner, Antonio Ferro (Sales Manager), who has been the distributor and retailer of the best hi-fi brands for more than 10 years, after an equal long experience in the fashion market.
Our goal is to produce tubes amplifiers with the best quality available on the market while maintaining the tradition of "hand-made" products in Italy. We intend to meet the most demanding high fidelity enthusiasts around the world.
