Cello Audio Palette – Un mito
Google translator is available
Graphic Massimo Piantini
L’ Audio Palette è uno degli oggetti, della storia dell’ Hi Fi, più conosciuti e invidiati dagli appassionati. La sua fama non è usurpata, perché i materiali e la sua realizzazione sono senza compromessi. Mark Levinson quando lo progettò, volle realizzare quello, che il quel periodo secondo lui, era il massimo possibile in fatto di circuitazione, materiali e suono. Se ancor oggi se ne parla come di un oggetto top, l’obbiettivo del costruttore è stato raggiunto.
Non è solo un pre, ma anche un equalizzatore a 6 bande.
La costruzione meccanica e di primissimo livello, con selettori e commutatori, per l’equalizzazione, di qualità assoluta. L’alimentazione separata, assicura massimo isolamento tra segnale e corrente di rete. Le stesse connessioni tra alimentare e Palette, denotano un’attenzione alle massime prestazioni ( non c’è connettore, ma cavi che si avvitano a solidi morsetti).
Poterne venire in possesso ad un prezzo adeguato, è sicuramente il sogno di moltissimi appassionati.

Looking back at the more than 25 years that there has been a Cello, the endeavor has always had the same motto – “The justification for a great music system is the same as for a great instrument: It makes possible a musical experience that cannot be duplicated by lesser means”.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, Italian master instrument makers developed and virtually perfected what we regard today as the modern string instruments. The name, Cello, embodies the spirit and concept of the products from Matthew James’ Showroom. In the……….

The Audio Palette
Richard S. Burwen developed the concept for the Audio Palette. Burwen found that certain tone control adjustments were necessary to obtain the most natural, lifelike sound from recordings.
Cello has identified the major cause of sonic problems in recordings as the tonal balance that has been adjusted by the recording and mastering engineers in the studio. Each engineer uses a monitoring system that is unique. Because the tonal balance of each system is different, each recording is different. Engineers primarily use equalization to optimize tonal balance for the best sound on their system.
The Audio Palette advances musical realism more than any other single component. Tonal balance can be corrected from the most delicate and subtle adjustments for the best recordings, to the most extreme and dramatic adjustments for vintage material, in order to restore the vitality and life to recordings of music without sonic deterioration.
The Audio Palette is used by record companies, mastering laboratories, and also by discriminating home listeners.
