Purity, Precision, and Presence
The Madison AMPLIFIER is Wattson’s first all-analog design and its first collaboration with CH Precision. Over a year in development, Wattson’s latest offering departs from conventional amplifier architecture, forging a new path for high-end sound in its price range. Inspired by CH’s reference designs, its circuitry features gain stages and a power structure built for musical accuracy, precision, and control. The Madison AMPLIFIER's signal path eliminates distortion while preserving harmonic integrity, revealing the full depth, texture, and spatial dimension of every recording. Music emerges with weight and presence, drawing the listener into a emotionally immersive experience.

What Wattson Owners Have to Say
"As the owner of an Emerson ANALOG and a fan of the analogue side of the sound, I was looking to upgrade the source of my system. Quite naturally, I wanted to compare my Emerson with a Madison and I was won over by this device: tighter bass, more authority..."
—Gerald—
"I wanted to switch towards a Roon server and TIDAL. I got hooked when listened to Danny Labrecque's (Luna Cables) setup here in the eastern township of Quebec, Canada. Wanted a digital solution that sounded as good as my Kuzma turntable (for convenience) and couldn't believe how this thing sounded..."
—Sandy S—
"Having owned the Madison, when I heard that an LE version was coming out, I couldn’t resist booking it with my friend. I had no particular expectations, apart from an overall improvement on the Madison 'Classic'. And I was not disappointed!"
—Nyrvan—
"I chose the Emerson DIGITAL for its compactness, robust software, Qobuz integration and sound quality. The reputation of the on-board streaming module also caught my attention."
—Christophe P.—
"I discovered Wattson on the Hifi Forum (Independent Hifi and Audiophile Forum). Having already owned a good dozen different streamers, I bought my Emerson DIGITAL for my main system. When I heard the result, I immediately looked for a second-hand one for my secondary system, so much I liked the result!"
—Alfachris—
"I wanted a streamer without a lot of features, knowing that most of the time I wouldn't need them anyway. Here it is, pure purism. My expectations weren't to hear the last bell, I rather wanted to enjoy the musical flow."
