In music, Grandioso represents more than just a style.
It embodies grandeur, majesty, and a sense of dignified brilliance.
It’s a term that resonates with those who seek perfection,
capturing the essence of something truly extraordinary.
Esoteric Grandioso series draws inspiration from this musical ideal,
delivering audio experiences that are nothing short of majestic.
Crafted for connoisseurs who demand the pinnacle of performance,

In classical music, a phrase that indicates how a piece of music should be played is called a conception motto. For example, "cantabile" (as if singing), "legato" (smoothly), and so on. A flagship model should have the dignity and stature of a top-of-the-line product. We named it "grandioso" (grand, majestic, dignified), which we likened to the motto of classical music.
Since its launch in 2013, the Grandioso series has established itself as an innovation icon in high-end audio, with a number of highly original technological innovations, including the legendary Super Audio CD transport mechanism "VRDS-ATLAS", the "Master Sound Discrete DAC" and "Master Sound Discrete Clock" composed of unique discrete circuits, the "Esoteric MagneDrive System", the "MC Balanced Current Input System", and the "ES-Link/ES-Link Analog" signal transmission.
