The EVO 200 is a tube integrated amplifier from PrimaLuna, sitting above the EVO 100 with somewhat greater output power and a considerably wider bandwidth. The EVO 200 brings PrimaLuna's more accomplished current engineering to a substantial tube integrated chassis.
Key specs that matter
Four single-ended inputs are provided. Input sensitivity is 275mV or 285mV depending on tube configuration, with input impedance at 100,000 ohms single-ended. Output power is 44W or 45W - somewhat more than the EVO 100's 40W/41W. Gain is 35dBu or 35.2dBu. Frequency response spans a wide 9Hz to 95,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB - considerably wider than the EVO 100's 75,000Hz. Signal-to-noise ratio is 86-87dB unweighted or 95-96dB weighted. At 405 x 365 x 205mm and 24kg, the EVO 200 represents a more substantial commitment than the EVO 100.
Sound and use context
Expect the warm, richly textured character tube amplification is broadly celebrated for, with the considerably wider 9Hz-95kHz bandwidth representing PrimaLuna's more accomplished current tube-integrated engineering above the EVO 100.
Pairing
PrimaLuna's own source catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings within the same broader tube-informed catalogue.
Alternatives
PrimaLuna's own EVO 300 Hybrid offers a considerably more powerful hybrid alternative within the same broader integrated amplifier catalogue.
