Atoll Evolution 2 Channel Power Amplifier - Made in France
Overview
The AM400 Evolution amplifier uses four pairs of MOSFET transistors per channel. Its discrete electronics have been redesigned to make the device insensitive to capacitive loads. Power is increased to 170 W / 8 Ω, and the signal-to-noise ratio to 105 dB. The high-quality MKP crossover capacitors are shielded, helping to preserve sound fidelity. The motherboard cables to the speaker outputs are pure, oxygen-free, silver-plated copper with Teflon insulation. The low series resistance filter capacitors are custom-made by a world-renowned specialist.

Connectivity
Audio Inputs
- 1 Stereo XLR Input.
- 1 Stereo Line Input.
- 1 12V Trigger Input.
Audio Outputs
- 1 Stereo Line Output.
- Tellurium Copper Speaker Outputs.
The tellurium copper speaker output plugs have been selected for their ability to transmit all the energy and micro-details of the electrical signal without alteration. The polypropylene film structure link capacitors have been selected by listening in the high-end series of the biggest manufacturers. In mono bridged mode the energy gain is colossal: this operation will be suitable in all systems where high power is required. The differential structure scheme allows this transformation to be carried out without altering the nuances of the musicality, the gain in “sound material” makes listening even more realistic.
