pink Faun High End Audio

Passion for audio equipment
Mag ik mij even voorstellen, mijn naam is Mattijs de Vries, oprichter en eigenaar van  Pink Faun. Ik ben afgestudeerd aan de Universiteit van Twente in Applied Physics, on ultra low noise super conducting magnetic field sensors. Mijn passie is het bouwen van versterkers, het uitproberen van nieuwe concepten en het beluisteren en beoordelen van nieuwe onderdelen.

Ik heb veel ervaring opgedaan in het beoordelen van onderdelen en hun gedrag tijden het verhandelen hiervan, mensen adviseren (en in ruil hiervoor hun feedback ), en het bouwen van mijn eigen apparatuur en het toepassen van modificaties. Al deze ervaringen komen tezamen in de ontwerpen van  Pink Faun designs. Alle Pink Faun versterkers zijn door mij persoonlijk ontworpen en getetst voordat zij aan de klanten worden afgeleverd.

Pink Faun started end of 2005. We are very much in the progress of getting our products finished. Most products already are used a lot as DIY kits from Machmat, or are tested as prototypes, and now one after one we are developing them into finished products. Not all information is ready therefore.

From parts to finished products.
Pink Faun is a trading name of Machmat tube and audio parts sales. With Machmat we have over 10 years experience in trading audio parts, DIY kits, modifications, restoring of equipment and custom design. People liked the sound of our equipment very much and more and more we got questions if we couldn't build these designs commercially. This is how Pink Faun emerged.

Small volume, low price, great service.
Pink Faun does not aim on high volume and high profit, we just want to deliver great sound at normal prices. Great advantage of small volume is that we can use the best parts available, mostly they are only found in smaller quantities. Pink Faun products do not need any modifications, it already is done standardly. We only work with few special dealers, only them with good sense and knowledge will be selected to sell our products. We can always be reached by E-mail, we like to keep contact personal. This is the only way we are able to keep delivering the high quality and service we stand for.

Produkten:

	DHT pre. This will be our topmodel directly heated triode pre amplifier, using the PX4 power tube.
	Fettle. Our JFET transistor pre amplifier on batteries including a phono RIAA pre amplifier.
	Minion. Tube pre amplifier including a phono RIAA pre amplifier.

	SE Monoblock. A single ended tube monoblocks, deliverable in two quality versions, with many different tube configurations.
	FET SE. A 50W single ended Class A FET amplifier, with tube inputstage and output transformers.
	D-POWER. A balanced 400W class D amplifier with tube input stage.
	Active amp. An amplifier specially made for active systems, containing a 8W fet Class A amplifier and a 100W class D amplifier, tube input stage and adjustable active crossover. This amplifier is very suitable for the Pink Faun Aglaya speakers.

	Thalia. A floor standing monitor speaker with a 12" 98 dB coaxial driver.
	Aglaya. An active three way speaker. Top end is 96dB from 200Hz and up, low end is 90dB, very suitable as set in combination with the Active amp.
	Euphrosyne. Top model, 98dB, 16ohms, compressiondriver on horn system. Available with active and passive crossover

Cables are a very important factor in optimizing a system. Pink Faun has developed a line of cables that fits our equipment best. Other equipment also will benefit greatly when our cables are used. Pink Faun cables are characterized as very fast and open, with no colouration and smearing. We do not need special correction networks or treatments, because we do not make the error in the first place.

Our signal cables have very special low capacitance and inductance layout, like is used in Hf technology, ensuring very high bandwidth and no smearing in the audio range. Power cables have low inductance layout, but high capacitance layout. We use very tightly wound mil spec airplane, non inductive, tin plated copper cable with teflon isolation as conductor, the inner strands have another twisting orientation than the outer strands. The tin plating of copper will ensure long life of the conductor, they will have no degradation of quality in time, and it has very low influence on the music, no harsh edges. All cables are shielded, to minimize influences from outside radiation, either hum or Hf. We use the highest quality Furutech connectors in our cables.

Pink Faun delivers two power cables, one for sources and pre amplifiers and one for power amplifiers. Both cables are twisted with earth and shielded for each phase, and shielded again as a whole assembly. Also we have two speaker cables, a thin one for power upto 50W and a high cable in bi-wiring and a thick cable for powers upto 1000W and for bass cable in bi-wire application. These cables are braided and shielded. A ground wire is added for more shielding and to enable grounding of speaker chassis, this can make a great improvement in systems. We also have signal interlinks both single ended and symmetrical. In these all signal lines are shielded seperately, also the ground wire.

Special cables like different lengths, plugs, and other configurations can be made on request.

Other Products

	Passive active modules. Small versatile modules containing dampers, active crossovers and speaker corrections. We will develop a complete line not only for our own products, but also for any commercial available products.
	Active crossover. An tube based adjustable active crossover.
	CD Player. A complete CD-player with tube output stage.
	DAC. A discrete build DAC with tube output stage.
	Tuner. A discrete build tuner, we think there can be taken a lot of music from the air or cable if done properly.
