PrimaLuna EVO 100 Tube Preamplifier with MM Phonostage

$3,394.00

Dual-Mono Topology, Toroidal Transformers, Tube Rectification, and a Built-In MM Phonostage Pile on the Value in PrimaLuna EVO 100 Tube Preamplifier: Hear Music with the Texture and Warmth You Crave

Whether you’ve never experienced the magic of tubes or are a longtime adopter of the approach, you’re going to be amazed by what you encounter with the PrimaLuna EVO 100 tube preamplifier. Offering a level of build quality, performance, and flexibility that takes on all comers in its price class, this high-value design counts dual toroidal transformers, tube rectification, and an analog volume control among its impressive advantages. A built-in MM phonostage, four pairs of RCA inputs, two pairs of RCA outputs, a stereo tape out, and a mobile-friendly 30.8-pound weight give you versatility.

Equipped with two 12AX7, two 12AU7, and two 5AR4 tubes, EVO 100 features dual mono topology — meaning it has two of practically everything that matters since it houses two discrete preamplifiers in one chassis. Combined with its rectified status, EVO 100 delivers music with a kind of three-dimensional imaging, low-noise presentation, and natural texture that optimally showcases the timeless work of the world’s finest artists and producers. SmartGain and PerfectMatch — the former involving gain set to just 10.8dB for exceptionally silent operation, the latter a circuit that presents an ideal 100K ohm impedance to your source components for seamless coherency — further give EVO 100 sonic-based advantages. 

Inside EVO 100, two toroidal transformers are enclosed in a metal housing and potted in a non-microphonic resin to future reduce noise and protect the windings from deterioration. This solution far out-performs C- and EI-core types in outboard power supply boxes. Point-to-point wiring throughout the entire signal path and ultra-quiet sealed relay inputs further check the audiophile boxes. 

An ALPS blue velvet potentiometer, slim remote control, and three-year manufacturer warranty round out a 7.5 x 11 x 15.9-inch (HWD) component that invites you to experience the warmth, musicality, and fullness of tube sound for a cost that makes the high-end extremely within reach.
