Mark Levinson Audio Systems

Mark Levinson is a brand that specializes in high quality hi - fi components.

The company was founded by him, but sold the mid-80s by economic problems in a forced situation at the Madrigal Audio Laboratories in 1972 as Mark Levinson Audio Systems ( MLAS ) by Mark Levinson. Today the company is part of the Harman International Industries and developed hi-fi equipment for cars (such as for Lexus ).

The outstanding reputation of the Mark Levinson devices is due to the uncompromising quality-oriented design of its first products that were marketed under his name and his subsequent projects under the name cello, and later under the name Red Rose Music. The products marketed by Madrigal under his name were able to build at any time to these original quality and their reputation. One of the first and most important products Mark Levinson was the preamp LNP -2, which was produced in very small quantities and still applies on the basis of three Penny & Giles potentiometer as an exemplary product due to its precise Einstellmöglicheiten.
