I know follow models of this brand: model "ONE" (biggest power amp), model TWO (smaller version of model "ONE") and model "THREE" (Pre-Amplifier)
The best italian craftsmanship by amplifiers, that I have see ever. Much more better than Krell and old Mark Levinson devices.
This amp I have mentioned by post #58 and #60 about

and by post #1 about

(small pic of Model "TWO")
Informations on the web are very hard to find cause the term "AES" (ambiguous term - here as brand name) here an example:

The mentioned models in previous pdf "FOUR", "302", "305", and "Four-M" I have never see before.
Who can call there for me (for asking the right keywords for google search and order images of the mentioned models) ?? Unfortunately I don't speak the Italian language.
what means the abbreviation "AES" in Italian ???

Hi Stefano - Hi Andreas,
I've got an german Audio magazin test review laying around somewhere at home. It was a test about the model one + three( Pre amp). Some inner details were photographed as well.
If its of interest I could look around and attach the review.
Regards Jochen
there isn't to find any website concerning this brand (URL's from #1 dead in the meantime).
What happens with this company ? Maybe overtaken by another brand ?
Maybe the customer service of a test magazine from Italy know details about this.
Repair is complicated because both input jFET's (2SK389/2SJ109) and the output TO-3 MOSFET's (IRF9140/150, not IRFP) are only as NOS parts available (because out of production).
I have the schematic (own creating according the PCB, but long time ago). Next time I will upload here.

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
"Fantastic and rare Italian pre and final pair of disproportionate power (360W rms x channel).
Only 200 pieces were produced.
Brand new and recently refurbished. Sgandurra himself."

"I know AES One well because Biasella showed me prototypes when I collaborated with ESB.
This is a good amplifier designed by Stefano Sgandurra, but absolutely no different from a conventional amplifier with differential input, VAS (voltage amplification stage) in the center and power amplifiers in an emitter follower, which number in the thousands over the decades. .."
