The Evolution Elegance is a stereo power amplifier from Trafomatic Audio, sharing the Elegance Evolution integrated amplifier's electrical specifications in a dedicated power-amplifier-only format. The Evolution Elegance brings Trafomatic's considered engineering to dedicated stereo power amplification.
Key specs that matter
Input sensitivity is 2,000mV, with input impedance at a substantial 100,000 ohms on both connections. Output power is 2 x 50W into 8 ohms, matching the Elegance Evolution integrated. Frequency response spans a wide 10Hz to 85,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB - wider than the Elegance Evolution's 45,000Hz. Total harmonic distortion plus noise is at 0.03% at 100% global feedback. At 450 x 320 x 195mm and 22kg, the Evolution Elegance shares identical chassis dimensions with the Elegance Evolution integrated amplifier.
Sound and use context
Expect the rich, harmonically resonant character tube-based amplification is broadly celebrated for, matching the electrical performance of Trafomatic's Elegance Evolution integrated amplifier in a dedicated power-amplifier-only format.
Pairing
A separate preamplifier is required to complete the signal chain, and Trafomatic's own Evolution Line One or Tara 30A preamplifiers offer natural, brand-coherent pairings.
Alternatives
Trafomatic's own EOS power amplifier offers a more powerful alternative within the same broader catalogue.
