EVO (short for evolution) is the same basic dual-mono, tube-rectified, choke-filtered preamp as the original ProLogue Premium preamp. The exposed tubes and power-supply capacitors create a vintage look like classic old-school tube power amplifiers. It’s timeless and shows off the most important feature of all current PrimaLuna preamps: dual-mono 5AR4/GZ34 tube rectification.
Prima Luna EVO 400
Description
EVO (short for evolution) is the same basic dual-mono, tube-rectified, choke-filtered preamp as the original ProLogue Premium preamp. The exposed tubes and power-supply capacitors create a vintage look like classic old-school tube power amplifiers. It’s timeless and shows off the most important feature of all current PrimaLuna preamps: dual-mono 5AR4/GZ34 tube rectification.
The EVO400 features tape out, super quiet inputs, dual mono topology, vacuum tube rectified, point-to-point wiring Dual Toroidal power transformers and ALPS Blue Velvet Potentiometer. It also offers Swiss-made wiring, Takman resistors, DuRoch Tinfoil Capacitors and an AC Offset Killer and XLR inputs.
The two 5AR4 tubes are 250ma/450VAC-capable with a full-wave rectifier that draws 1.9 amps of current aet 5VAC. Two massive torroidal power transformers eliminate magnetic noise, sealed in a metal shield to keep the front end quiet. Gain is an impressive 10db.
With the Evo line, you get hand-made construction of a heavy-gauge, fully-vented steel chassis with a five coat finish, each coat hand-rubbed and polished, holding the finest point-to-point wiring, using workmanship that is normally only available at the highest price.
Designed in Holland, the Evo 100’s controls are simple and effective. The enginering and build quality are amazing, with many quality add-ons seldom found on preamps in this price range.
