The Value of a High-End Audio store for music lovers and audiophiles
Meet Marius Dittert and Markus Nolden of HiFi-Studio Wittmann in Stuttgart
Since its founding in 1993 by Oliver Wittmann, HiFi-Studio Wittmann has become a cornerstone in the high-end audio world. Driven by a passion for music, the HiFi-Studio in Stuttgart-Botnang is now ranked among Germany’s top 30 audio specialty stores—a distinction awarded by the High End Society.
A Personal approach tailored to customer needs
Marius Dittert explains: “Our customers are music lovers and audiophiles seeking something special. Often, they want to upgrade their existing setup or are looking for an entirely new system tailored to their preferences. These clients don’t just drop by; they schedule personalized consultations and listening sessions with us because they trust our expertise.”
“During these appointments, everything revolves around the customer. Together, we analyze their preferences, musical taste, and the acoustic conditions of their space. We then factor in their budget, expectations, and technical possibilities to achieve the next step in their setup.”
“Finding the perfect combination is a creative process for us. It requires time, experimentation, and attentive listening to harmonize all elements perfectly. As music enthusiasts, we share our customers’ passion and go the extra mile to ensure they are satisfied and feel well cared for,” says Marius.
A loyal customer base
“What sets us apart is that profit is not our primary goal. We help our customers find the perfect solution for them, and that is only possible through honesty. If a customer is heading in a direction that we feel doesn’t suit them, we’ll say so.”
“Our customers love music and exceptional-sounding audio systems. It’s always about emotions and feelings! They know that we understand this. We ensure that their system has a soul.”
“For larger speakers and particularly high-end electronics or turntables, we assist our customers in their homes whenever possible. This commitment has earned us an exceptionally loyal clientele.”
Wittmann and Octave: A 30-year partnership
“Our collaboration with Octave has been going strong for almost 30 years, which says a lot about our shared passion for high-end audio,” notes Markus with a smile.
“Octave is renowned for its unique sound. Octave tube amplifiers combine power and control over connected speakers with uncompromising musicality—a rare combination for tube amplifiers. This makes Octave a unique and popular choice among music lovers.”
Why customers choose Octave
Customers who choose Octave appreciate:
An example is the MRE 220 SE mono power amplifiers, which allow users to choose between KT88, 6550, KT120, KT150, and KT170 tubes. This flexibility enables fine-tuning of the system’s sound. Many listeners are truly astonished by the results.
Currently, we have two Octave systems on display. The first is paired with the impressive Franco Serblin Ktema speakers, and the second with Burmester B38 speakers. Both systems are exceptionally musical, and we are proud to showcase them.
Our passion for Octave amplifiers
At HiFi-Studio Wittmann, we feature many high-end brands, but Octave holds a special place in our hearts. The brand stands for extraordinary quality, innovation, and reliability.
“My experience as a journalist for two renowned German audio magazines has given me extensive knowledge of testing and evaluating high-end equipment. I have always appreciated Octave products for their distinctive sound, clear identity, and high practicality. Oliver Wittmann, with his technical background as a former service manager for a well-known German high-end manufacturer, is also a big fan of the brand. He deeply values the innovative way Octave amplifiers are designed and built.”
What makes Octave unique
“Octave amplifiers combine phenomenal sound with unparalleled technical reliability. The safety design is an excellent example: even if we disconnect speakers while the amplifier is still on, everything remains intact—neither the speakers nor the amplifier are damaged.”
“In 30 years, we’ve never encountered a defective Octave amplifier. Every model is thoughtfully engineered and flawlessly constructed, both technically and sonically. These qualities make Octave a brand that not only we but also our customers consistently value.”
