The amplifier operates in the AB-class and is equipped with a linear power supply unit with a massive 400 VA toroidal transformer, which can output 80 watts per channel at 8 ohms and 130 watts at a four-ohm load. In addition to the two linear analog inputs, the amplifier has two optical and two coaxial digital inputs, the latter allowing decoding of the PCM stream from MQA. Digital-to-analog conversion up to 24/192 is implemented on a Burr Brown chip. The aptX Bluetooth wireless connection ensures stable transmission of music content from mobile devices at a distance of up to 15 meters.
An amplifier based on the Attesa line. Built according to the innovative Euphoria architecture with a "smart" class AB. It is equipped with a hybrid volume control and a built-in Rapture DAC, a MM phono corrector with an accuracy of 0.5 dB recovery of the RIAA curve. The signal processor of the device is controlled via the Maestro Unite mobile application. The display is monochrome OLED.
The Roksan Attesa Streaming Amplifier combines an AB-class integrated amplifier and a modern player-streamer equipped with a highly efficient network module. The module is based on the progressive BluOS operating system, which allows integrating this model into a wireless multiroom ecosystem with the ability to play up to sixty-four separate music zones and access to numerous web radio stations and online services, including Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Deezer, Qobuz, HDtracks, HighResAudio, etc. BluOS makes it possible to transmit Hi-Res audio over the air in a resolution of up to 24 bit/192 kHz.
