Kismet Reference

The Kismet Reference Amplifier

With Kismet Reference Amplifiers, Odyssey has achieved a massive improvement over the excellent Stratos line, creating true reference components.

Kismet results from years of tweaking and development, with fanatical attention paid to sourcing quality parts, relentless internal measuring, and careful component matching. Countless hours of listening have gone into refining the Kismet’s sound.

The casing is completely billet machined from aircraft aluminum. Each case requires a minimum of 13 hours of machining time. Add another 10 hours + for all hand labor to complete each amplifier, and one can see that this is indeed a labor of love.

Kismet’s achievements in communicating the pure emotional content of music, producing true three-dimensionality, as well as fast, dynamic representations without grain, harshness, or fatigue, are very rare at any price.
