Daniel Hertz boasts that it is introducing the first major advance in residential audio systems in many decades. This technology is called C Wave (Continuous Wave Technology) and the company says it is embedded in the new Daniel Hertz Maria amplifier, which itself was designed by Mark Levinson and the Daniel Hertz team.
Daniel Hertz asserts that it is the only company that understands the difference between analog and digital audio; it can measure those differences, and it has a solution to deliver pure analog sound from standard digital formats, including streaming.
Maria is a single chassis amplifier with sound quality beyond the most expensive separate component DAC, preamplifier, power amplifier, and interconnect cables. Maria’s high levels of performance the company stresses is due to exclusive Daniel Hertz semiconductors, software, and electronics architecture that combine to produce emotion beyond the realm of what the industry thinks is possible.
“Daniel Hertz is the best of my 50 years of work in audio, achieving my dream of faithful music reproduction and offering a new, healthy model for serious music lovers worldwide,” says Mark Levison.
Maria is said to eliminate the disappointment of high-end audio at prices within reach and the product is available three versions: The Maria 50 (enough power for most people), Maria 200 (for maximum SPL), and Maria 800 (four channels for driving bi-amplified speakers).
The Future of Digital Lighting & Control
As a custom integrator, lighting is in demand. Effective communication, education and showcasing the value proposition of LED light fixtures in conjunction with integrative control systems are the keys to overcoming challenges and closing sales in this specialized market.

Mighty Cat, combined with high-performance regulated power supplies and extremely linear power output stages, takes music reproduction to a new level with elegant design, compact size, and lightweight, silent operation with no fans, low heat, and high energy efficiency.
Maria includes new tuning software to obtain much more natural sound from high-quality speakers and headphones from many manufacturers with calibration to within tenths of a dB –accuracy never before achieved in residential music reproduction. Of course, Maria can be delivered with precise tunings for all of the company’s companion loudspeaker products.
“This allows customers to experience the benefits of the new Daniel Hertz technology in their own homes, risk-free with a money-back guarantee,” adds Huey Long, CEO of Daniel Hertz.
