Unison Research Unico 150 Hybrid

Description

The Unico 150 amplifier has been designed to suit both high-end audiophile and highly scientific criteria. This dual-approach to development has led to the creation of a product that is different to anything Unison Research – or any other manufacturer – have developed before: a powerful, great-sounding amplifier with only three stages (two tube stages and one power MOSFET stage).

The Unison Research Unico 150 is a high-end, Italian-made hybrid integrated amplifier that blends tube warmth with solid-state power. It is widely praised for a large-scale, muscular sound that remains smooth and non-fatiguing, featuring an elegant, robust build with a Class A tube input stage and MOSFET power stage.

The Unico 150 is characterized by a “warm,” “rich,” and “musical” sound, yet it retains excellent detail and a wide soundstage. It is lauded for its ability to produce a “fluid,” valve-like midrange. It is a powerful performer that delivers “huge scale” and punchy dynamics, suitable for driving demanding speakers.
