Important warning: Audiomat sticking to the terms of the musical lexicon, has often re-used the same name when a new model is released.

These sometimes have nothing in common, and the ranges sometimes overlap.

Example: the Prélude are the models above the Arpège ... but an Arpège Référence 10, the last generation, is superior to a Prélude of 1987.

For DACs, even if the obsession of audiophiles with the "chips" used masks the fact that "everything else" is fundamental to the final result, the technological evolution of these chips means that a last generation Tempo 2.9 is not only superior to a "Tempo 3", but even globally superior to a first generation Maestro Reference.
