Neodio
French manufacturers of exceptional High Fidelity products since 2002
“On some days, the sound produced by a Hi-Fi system offers moments of pure grace: our favourite artists are with us in the room, with all the atmosphere of a live concert. In such instances, the realism seems absolute. However, more often than not, there is something slightly artificial about Hi-Fi sound, even from a top-of-the-range system, that prevents us from really “connecting” to the music in question.
For many years, I was confronted with incomprehensible phenomena that seemed to contradict traditional approaches to the technology. Since then, I have come to understand that, for a consistently realistic experience, the electronic circuits have to be protected from various forms of interference. These come from the outside, but can also be generated from within the devices.
By challenging the usual technical solutions, we have made several steps towards real high fidelity. For example, for our digital players, we have developed discrete analogue clocks, located as close as possible to the conversion circuits. This is a world-wide exclusive.
Our focus now is on designing simple, elegant technical solutions. Any unnecessary complexity is eliminated. As with musical instruments, it is the quality of the design and the production that prevails. Our approach involves spending a considerable amount of time listening to the components.
All of them. Right down to the fuses that protect our devices. In order to ensure the quality and long-life of our products, they are designed and manufactured in France. We select ultra reliable components and industrial processes. At NEODIO, High Fidelity is achieved through a combination of innovation combined with painstaking optimization, based on listening. Our evaluation criteria are based on the naturalness of the timbres, the respect of the dynamic and the rendering of the sound image. Our ambition is to offer our customers those elusive moments of pure grace.”
