Jericho – town in the Palestinian Autonomous Territories on the
West Bank of the Jordan.
During the siege of the town, the (seven) trumpets of jericho
were used by the Israelite people to bring down the walls of the
town.
The high-end amplifier jericho aims to work just like the
trumpets of biblical tradition: The unique sound and the power of
the basses will break down the walls around our hearts and open us
up emotionally - for wonderful and extremely nuanced musical
enjoy-ment.
In the “scripture“, the trumpets were said to have a magical
sound which was terrifying in its volume. To-day, we can experience
the perfect sound with a tube amplifier that commands the largest
power reserves and corresponding dynamics.
Jericho – Stadt in den palästinensischen Autonomiegebieten am
Westufer des Jordan.
Die (sieben) Trompeten von jericho, die während der Belagerung
der Stadt durch das Volk der Israeli-ten zu Hilfe genommen wurden,
um die Mauern der Stadt zum Einsturz zu bringen.
Wie die Trompeten in der biblischen Überlieferung will auch der
high-end amplifier jericho wirken: Der einzigartige Klang und die
Wucht der Bässe sollen die Mauern um unser Herz brechen und uns
emotio-nal öffnen - für wunderbaren und extrem nuancierten
Musikgenuss.
In der „Schrift“ wurde den Trompeten ein zauberhafter und in
Ihrer Lautstärke erschreckender Klang nachge-sagt. Heute erleben
wir perfekten Sound mit einem Röhrenverstärker, der über größte
Leistungsreserven und entsprechende Dynamik verfügt.

High-End HiFi-Monobloc jericho by mfe
The new high-end hifi-tube amplifier jericho was designed by the
company mfe as a mono power amplifier. It is the result of profound
specialist knowledge and a five-year development process.
This tube power amplifier, with its extreme power re-serve of
~1000 watt output power and its weight of approx. 55 kilograms, is
certainly one of the largest and heaviest in its class. Only the
finest materials, such as stainless steel, glass, anodized
aluminium and carbon, are used in its production. The tubes are
protected against breakage by a stylish carbon bridge and set the
highest standards by virtue of their sound characteristics. The
manufacturer mfe, a specialist in tube amplifiers, guarantees the
highest level of precision in the construction of this product.
For music enthusiasts, jericho means a sound expe-rience „par
excellence“ - for aesthetes and design aficionados, the power
amplifier is a “feast for the eyes”.
In conjunction with a high-quality loudspeaker sys-tem, jericho
guarantees the reproduction of music at the highest possible
level.
jericho is available in a variety of colours, including
black-silver, black-red, black-blue and black-gold.
High-End HiFi-Monoblock jericho von mfe
Der neue High-End HiFi-Röhrenverstärker jericho wurde im Hause
mfe als Mono-Endstufe konzipiert. Er ist das Resultat profunden
Fachwissens und eines fünf Jahre währenden
Entwicklungsprozesses.
Diese Röhren-Endstufe ist mit ihrer extremen Leist- ungsreserve
von ~1000 Watt Ausgangsleistung und ihrem Gewicht von ca. 55
Kilogramm eine der wohl größten und schwersten ihrer Klasse. Nur
edelste Materialien wie Edelstahl, Glas, eloxiertes Aluminium und
Karbon werden bei ihrer Herstellung verwendet. Die Röhren sind
durch eine formschöne Karbon- Brücke vor Bruch geschützt und setzen
aufgrund ihrer klanglichen Eigenschaften höchste Maßstäbe. Der
Hersteller mfe, Spezialist für Röhrenverstärker, garantiert höchste
Präzision beim Bau des Produkts.
Für Musikenthusiasten bedeutet jericho ein Klanger-lebnis „par
excellence“ – für Ästheten und Designfans ist die Endstufe eine
„Augenweide“.
In Verbindung mit einem hochwertigen Lautspre-chersystem
garantiert jericho die Wiedergabe von Musik auf aller höchstem
Niveau.
jericho ist u. a. in den Farben Schwarz-Silber, Schwarz-Rot,
Schwarz-Blau und Schwarz-Gold lieferbar.

Pleasure for all senses
HEAR ITAnyone who appreciates the detail and subtle nuance of
tube-amplified audio signals will be carried away by the pure and
clear reproduction. From the quiet start to the perfectly
crescendoing sequence of frequencies and sound waves: expe- rience
it when the unit reaches its power limit at an output of ~1000
watts.
SEE ITThe design implementation itself is a pleasure. Four
dominant, valuable materials - stainless steel, glass, anodized
aluminium and carbon - invite the eye to linger with their
contrasting colour scheme.
FEEL ITFrom a quiet and soft start to voluminous detona-tion:
jericho makes the sound experience not only audible - but also
tangible. The different material surfaces with their individual
haptics are just de-manding to be felt.
Genuss für alle Sinne
HÖRE ES!Wer die Detailtreue und feine Nuancierung
röhren-verstärkter Tonsignale schätzt, wird mitgerissen von der
reinen und klaren Wiedergabe. Vom leisen Start bis zur perfekt
crescendendierenden Frequenz- und Schallwellenfolge: Erleben Sie
es, wenn das Gerät bei einem Output von ~1000 Watt seine
Leistungs-grenze erreicht.
SEHE ES!Allein die gestalterische Umsetzung ist ein Genuss. Vier
dominante, wertige Materialien – Edelstahl, Glas, eloxiertes
Aluminium und Karbon – laden das Auge mit ihrer kontrastierenden
Farbgebung zum Verweilen ein.
FÜHLE ES!Von leise und weich startend bis zur voluminösen
Detonation: jericho macht das Klangerlebnis nicht nur hörbar –
sondern auch fühlbar. Die unterschied- lichen Material-Oberflächen
mit ihrer individuellen Haptik fordern geradezu dazu auf, erfühlt
zu werden.

Behind all this
MICHAEL FRANKENdiscovered his love of music at the age of 5. His
musical career began with the violin. But the tech-nology held a
great fascination for him as well, especially the inner life of
tube radios. It was the youthful enthusiasm for rock music that
eventually drew music and technology together. He started to play
the guitar and soon built his first guitar amplifier and a hi-fi
system - of course, in tube technology.After studying electrical
engineering, he worked for several years as a development engineer
- which included work in the field of electroacoustics. In 1992, in
order to realize his high demands with re-gard to exclusive but
affordable audio components, he founded “mfe - Michael Franken
Electronic”.Characterized by his uncompromising quality re-
quirements, his long-standing professional compe-tence and his
experience as a musician, he has since then developed pioneering
audio components that stand out through their lively sound full of
dynamism and harmony.The product portfolio of mfe now encompasses
an assortment that ranges from tube amplifiers and digital
converters through the power supply to high-efficiency
loudspeakers.
WILLY REISENImbued as a child with a love of electronics, Willy
Reisen set himself on a professional path that would lead to
mechanical engineering, electrical enginee-ring and electronics.
After completing several profes-sional training courses, he studied
industrial electro-nics and developed SF6 switchgears for high
voltages and currents. The switch to light technology in 1986 led
to him becoming self-employed in 1990 with the focus on object
lighting, and from 1996 onwards, the first lighting products
followed in high-quality white LED lighting technology. In Germany,
he paved the way for a new lighting era and has since then en-
joyed an excellent reputation in this niche market.Countless
lighting objects from renowned archi-tects throughout Europe
provide a testament to his work as a product developer, designer
and light- ing manufacturer. Many patents, utility models and
registered designs, as well as several design awards, mark his
progress and in 2015, Willy Reisen was appointed the first
„publicly appointed and sworn expert for LED lighting technology“
by „IHK Mittlerer Niederrhein” (Chamber of Industry and Commerce,
Middle Lower Rhine). With his passion for music and growing up in
the time of „Pink Floyd“ and „Deep Purple“, a tube amplifier has
always belonged to the “non plus ultra“ for this ultimate music
lover.

THE INTERCHANGEThe chance acquaintance of two creative
professionals made it possible. The powerful potential of working
together was first recognized in initial discussions held 5 years
ago. They wanted to utilize this in a partnership to build a common
goal - a tube amplifier of superlatives. The aim was to set new
standards with regard to design excellence and to achieve both
mechanically and electroni-cally perfect implementation - combined
with an optimal listening experience.
