Description
The PrimaLuna EVO 300 Hybrid Power Amplifier is unlike any other hybrid amplifier on the market. You can SEE that, and you can HEAR that. PrimaLuna’s Hybrid Power Amplifier uses the same tube input gain-stage and solid-state power amp gain-stage as the celebrated Hybrid Integrated, except that the power amp’s solid-state circuit has a gain relay which allows for gain switching between 24 dB or 30 dB, while keeping the tube gain steady. This hybrid design approach uses unique and innovative engineering to tightly connect the tube and the MOSFET section, ensuring they are always working in tandem. Too often, hybrid amps turn out to be less than the sum of their parts – a mismatch, both technically and sonically. It's essential to choose solid-state components that behave similarly to a tube. PrimaLuna EVO 300 Hybrid Power Amplifier's MOSFETs, used in the power stages, share similar characteristics with tubes.
