PrimaLuna EVO 300 (EL34) - Tube Power Amplifier
Description
Journey into the heart of precise, premium audio reproduction with PrimaLuna's EVO 300 (EL34) - Tube Power Amplifier. At your fingertips, you can seamlessly switch between muscular ultra-linear and luscious triode modes, thanks to an impressive remote-controlled triode/ultra-linear switching system, mastered by Dutch artisans. Think of it as your auditory passport to navigate through your beloved music landscape, rediscovering albums you used to shun as too harsh or bright. Now, you'll hear them revived with unprecedented lucidity and fullness.
Forget about the limitations of traditional triode amps, the EVO 300 explodes those boundaries with deeper bass and shimmering highs, enhanced with a bold, dynamic sonic contrast between light and dark, loud and soft. Furthermore, the EVO 300 boasts a PrimaLuna exclusive feature, the AC Offset Killer, which plunges noise levels down, allowing your music to rise from a place of profound silence. Be prepared for a breathtaking clarity that will lead you to question how such pure sound can be possible from a machine.
The in-built Bad Tube Indicator safeguards your amplifier from tube failures and our Adaptive AutoBias technology provides you the best of both worlds: low maintenance and distortion-free, exquisite audio performance. This model also comes with TAKMAN resistors, acclaimed for their low noise and exceptional musicality, and a stereo-to-monoblock switch, offering the flexibility to amplify your audio experience as your budget grows.
All these features, along with custom toroidal power transformers, super-wide-bandwidth output transformers and SmartWatts extended tube life, combine to give you an amplifier without compromise; a PrimaLuna hallmark. This is all about reigniting your love for music, redefining what's possible, and rediscovering your cherished albums. Welcome to the PrimaLuna EVO 300 - where your tube dreams come true.
