Canor Audio

The CANOR story has its origins in the early 1990s, when Zdeňek Březovják – still the company's chief developer and co-owner today – met his business partners. The son of a musician and multi-instrumentalist had previously learned to play the violin and tenor saxophone himself, but soon became more interested in the technical aspects of sound reproduction. Zdeňek Březovják studied electrical engineering, specializing in radio electronics and gained experience at a manufacturer of professional PA amplifiers.

The engineer later developed his first own mono power amplifiers and a battery-operated preamplifier - and came across his current colleagues, who were working on the TP101 tube amplifier at the time. The prototype of this first mass-produced device was presented at the trade fair in Brno (Czech Republic) in April 1995.

After further models with alternative circuit concepts and tubes, the current Class A tube integrated amplifier AI 1.10 was finally created. It is now supported by the transistor amplifier AI 1.20, the tube phono preamplifier PH 1.10 and PH 2.10, the combined tube and Class D integrated amplifier AI 2.10 and the CD players CD 1.10 and 2.10.

In May 2022, the brand new DAC 2.10 was introduced as well as the state-of-the-art pre-/power amplifier combination Hyperion P1 + Virus M1.

Since 2024, in addition to the Virus I2 integrated amplifier and Asteroid V2 phono preamplifier from the Premium Line, there is also the large Hyperion P1 preamplifier.

Class A tube integrated amplifier from the Premium Line

  • A Class A tube amplifier with an output power of 2 x 40 W

  • KT88 high-performance tubes with autobias with cathode feedback

  • With option to instantly switch between triode and ultra-linear mode

  • PCB's use our first-class CMT â„¢ technology

  • Perfect channel separation through a relay volume control with individual blocks for each channel. The gain control is in steps of 1 dB and attenuates up to 63 dB

  • High-capacity capacitors in the filter provide energy for precise and well-defined bass

  • The signal path contains only high-quality polypropylene capacitors

  • Precise selection and pairing of tubes with above-average parameters

  • The synchronous control option allows the use of two amplifiers in monoblock operation without an additional preamplifier. This master/slave mode has an output power of 80 W per channel
