Overview
PrimaLuna EVO 300 Hybrid Power Amplifier
Tube-driven. MOSFET-powered. Stereo today, monoblocks tomorrow.
The PrimaLuna EVO 300 Hybrid Power Amplifier combines vacuum tube input stages with solid-state output power, delivering the character of tubes alongside the current delivery and speaker control of MOSFET amplification.
With 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 150 watts into 4 ohms, the EVO 300 Hybrid is built for demanding two-channel systems. Its switchable monoblock configuration offers a clear upgrade path, increasing rated output to 220 watts into 8 ohms or 300 watts into 4 ohms per amplifier.
Six 12AU7 vacuum tubes handle input gain and driver duties, while Linear Systems JFETs and custom Exicon MOSFETs form the solid-state amplification stages. The result is a purpose-built hybrid design that brings both technologies together in a dedicated power amplifier.
Key Features
-
Hybrid amplification: Six 12AU7 tubes paired with JFET and MOSFET solid-state circuitry.
-
100W per channel: Rated stereo output into 8 ohms, increasing to 150W per channel into 4 ohms.
-
Monoblock capability: Use two amplifiers for 220W into 8 ohms or 300W into 4 ohms per channel.
-
Switchable gain: Select 24dB or 30dB to accommodate different preamplifiers and system configurations.
-
Balanced and unbalanced inputs: Stereo XLR and RCA connections.
-
Custom toroidal transformers: Potted transformers designed to minimize mechanical noise and electromagnetic interference.
-
AC Offset Killer: PrimaLuna circuitry designed to reduce transformer hum caused by DC offset on the AC supply.
-
Premium internal components: Takman resistors, European tin-foil signal capacitors, and hand-wired point-to-point signal paths using Swiss-made silver-plated OCC copper wire.
