INTRODUCTION:

The ACRH-3 is a high-performance integrated amplifier designed for audiophiles and music lovers who require an 

easy-to-use solution to play their music from vinyl or other high-quality formats and sources. It incorporates two independent 

audio sections: the tube preamplifier and the semiconductor output stage. It combines the best of both worlds in a warm, 

detailed sounding amplification system with the ability to handle loudspeakers with complex loads.

The preamplification section is based on a double tube per channel type 12AU7 (ECC82), which, having two output ports, 

can be connected to another amplifier or a subwoofer. This independent section works as an interconnection point for 

alternate equipment and the amplifier and its source regulated by vacuum tubes that improve instrument detail and dynamic 

range.

The equipment has 4 line inputs and one for pickup. The phono preamp is high-quality and discreet, with enough gain to 

drive moving-magnet, moving-iron, or moving-coil pickups or cartridges.

The amplifier is direct coupling and discrete semiconductor type AB+; this optimizes the junction between stages, avoiding 

signal losses. Margules designed this module to handle high current allowing it to take challenging and complex loads. 

ANA® (

Neuro-Acoustic Alignment

).

The development of ANA® (Neuro-Acoustic Alignment) technology is a Margules innovation based on how the human brain 

perceives sound, prioritizing the harmonic structure over the fundamental tone. This technology is defined based on how 

humans perceive and process sound.

This technological advance has its origin in the theory of captivating sound (beautiful sound). Our brain decodes information 

from sound waves through our ears. When sounds are close, they keep us attentive due to the relationship between their 

perception, the distance in which we perceive them, and their intelligibility. Distant sounds, even when intelligible, do not 

attract our attention and are easily ignored.

We created our ANA® technology to achieve a more realistic sound with adequate frequency response, low distortion, and 

high-precision harmonic reproduction, optimizing the relationship between source and listener to the maximum to enjoy 

music in ways never available before.
