Feliks Audio Envy 25th Anniversary

Inspired by the German concept of “Meisterwerk,” meaning “masterpiece,” this amplifier lives up to its name with exceptional attention to detail, both in performance and aesthetics.

“As Feliks Audio’s long-standing partner, we were inspired to create a unique masterpiece that celebrates our collaboration. Envy Meisterwerk is more than a high-performance amplifier – it’s a fusion of art, design and sound that elevates the way we experience music,” said Thomas Halbgewachs, Owner of Headphone.Shop.

Key Features

• Legendary Western Electric 300B Tubes: Envy Meisterwerk features the first-ever integration of these iconic tubes in a Feliks amplifier.
• Precision Engineering: Optimized internal circuitry and extremely tight selection of supporting driver tubes, maximizes the performance of the 300B tubes for clarity and depth.
• Stunning Wood Finishes: Available in elegant ebony or striking zebrano, each piece showcases exquisite craftsmanship.
• Sustainable Sourcing: Crafted from responsibly sourced materials, embodying luxury with a conscience.

Organic Resonance

In perfect harmony with the natural world, the Envy Meisterwerk comes in a solid zebrano finish – one of the most sought-after and visually stunning woods nature has to offer. Zebrano’s bold, dynamic grain and warm tones perfectly match the Envy hardware and infuse energy and elegance into any space.

The process of sourcing and shaping this material is itself a “Meisterwerk”, resulting in a natural yet refined finish that sets this headphone amplifier apart as a true design statement.

A Bold Step Forward

At the heart of the Envy Meisterwerk we have the legendary Western Electric 300B tubes. For the first time ever, Feliks Audio has integrated these tubes into one of their amplifiers, meticulously tuning the internal circuitry to unleash their full potential.

The result? Nothing short of breathtaking. Expect a sound that is rich, dynamic, and full-bodied, with sweet tones, seductive vocals, and a soundstage that feels as expansive as it is intimate.

“Integrating Western Electric tubes into our Envy Meisterwerk marks a significant leap forward for Feliks Audio. This achievement unlocks a new dimension of sound, allowing us to capture the emotional essence of music in a whole new way.” – Feliks Audio

The Envy Meisterwerk elevates these tubes to their fullest potential. Feliks Audio meticulously optimized the amplifier’s internal circuitry and hand-selected components to create a synergy with the 300B tubes, resulting in a finely tuned system that takes you back to the golden age of hi-fi.

Western Electric: A Legacy in Sound

As the inventor of tube technology, Western Electric has been a pioneer since the 1900s. Introduced in 1938, the 300B tube is a direct-heated triode, designed to meet the highest standards of audio amplification. Western Electric has remained true to its origins, maintaining strict quality standards and producing tubes that last for nearly 40,000 hours. With incredibly low distortion and unmatched longevity, the 300B – now backed by an exceptional 5-year manufacturer warranty – continues to define what is possible in high-performance audio.
