about ferrero
Ferrero is the electronics line of Acustica Applicata, the Italian acoustics house founded in 1992 by a group of audiophiles and best known for the DaaD (Dipole Acoustic Absorption Device) family of room-treatment modules. After three decades spent solving low- and mid-frequency problems in the room itself, the company turned the same engineering discipline toward the signal chain. The line debuts with the Ferrero L9, a tube preamplifier built around the company's stated principles of uncompromising parts selection and circuit design rather than feature count. It is positioned as a statement-tier control component, the first product in a planned electronics range that extends the Acustica Applicata name beyond passive acoustic treatment into active reproduction. Ferrero competes in the small-volume Italian high-end tier alongside the country's other boutique electronics and acoustics makers, where the buyer is already familiar with DaaD products and treats the brand as a known quantity. US distribution runs through The Audio Salon in Los Angeles under Maier Shadi, with the parent Acustica Applicata acoustics line also represented through High Water Sound. Press coverage to date is show-based: Stereophile reported on the line in its AXPONA 2026 floor coverage, though no dedicated product review has been published yet. Design and manufacturing remain in Italy, at the Acustica Applicata facility that has produced the DaaD modules and resonators since the early 1990s.
