Handmade
Before a 909 power amplifier is completed and ready for delivery, it goes through a series of assembly stations at the Berlin factory. From the hand-assembled circuit boards, whose solder joints are meticulously checked before installation, to the selected transformers and the computer-aided measuring station, approximately 100 hours of manufacturing time are required – in addition to 7 days of testing with further intensive quality controls, culminating in a comprehensive final listening test under real-world conditions. This elaborate manufacturing process ensures that the customer ultimately receives a product that is exceptional in every respect.
