Current Name from German's former Company "Fidelity" and where are the Schematics ??
This company, known only to insider circles, mainly produced integrated-, pre- and power amplifiers.
Until this day I haven't heard them unfortunately, but this devices have a very good reputation concerning sonic quality.
Test reviews I have found in German's magazine stereoplay 1985, oct. (GARANT, integr. amp), 1986, aug. (OPAL preamp)
Who took over this audio brand and who can upload the schematics ?
Best thanks for some hints.
