p1

Our first commercially available electronics product says “Hi!” to the world!

It cannot do much, but what it does is worth to find out about.

“…Listeners after an amp for their W5, W8 or W11 should audition Sven’s petite p1 prior to anything else. It absolutely works wonders on any of them. That’s a promise!”

“…The bang-for-the-buck factor of the p1 is off the charts…”

Frank Peraino, The Sound Advocate

“…Fanciers of 45 kg class A behemoths like the recently reviewed 16’800 Euro 50wpc Gryphon Essence will be aghast that this makes 6 times their power for 5.5 times less cash. Of course they know that class A is a very different sonic proposition than class D could ever hope to be. But is it, really? …”

“I have already learnt that everything audio that Sven Boenicke touches has a special vibe to it and this amazing little Amp is no different.

I tried matching my Boenicke Speakers with numerous Amps and setups before this little beauty came out. The clarity and presence on my W8SE have emerged to mind-blowing levels now. After years of listening, twitching and seeking the perfect sound, I think here I may have found the only Hifi system I need.

Thanks Sven!”

“Wauw, insane crisp sound, very articulated, fragile but powerful when needed, I’ve heard other amps, twice the cost of this one, who can not even compete with this one.
I love it. It grows on me, what a beast!”

Tim de Groote, Belgium

“I’m a lucky one, having recently acquired Boenicke’s new p1 amplifier. It’s awesome!

I’m a month-in and am simply blown away! I needed to replace a legacy McIntosh amp and required a much smaller footprint due to space constraints. Already enjoying my Boenicke speakers, I e-mailed the company in search of advice and was met with a prompt response from Sven himself. He suggested that, if patient, I could be an early adopter and trial his p1.

My patience is richly rewarded, daily — the unit is so small yet so powerful, and it’s supremely transparent across my wide-ranging musical wanderings. Thank you to the folks in Basel, I can’t wait to see what’s next!”

“p1 is the best gift you can give to your W5s, ever. It makes them shine in all possible aspects, effecting in both rendering an extraordinary number of details and creating an immersive, life-like soundstage, just like what all Boenicke products are known for.

Additionally, even though it is a miniature (quite literally, being the size of an actual Mac Mini) Class D amp, it still presents a very coherent design, without sacrificing the actual physics for DSP “magic” – something becoming of a rarity these days.

All in all, if you’re looking for the best possible amplification for your W5 setup (I’ve yet got to try it out with different speakers, but I’m sure that p1’s loads of power will handle quite a few), look no further – you’ve got it with the p1.”
