The PrimaLuna EVO 100 Integrated is the entry-level vacuum tube integrated amplifier in the acclaimed EVO Series by the Dutch manufacturer PrimaLuna.

Designed to deliver the rich warmth and natural tonality characteristic of valve amplification alongside long-term operational reliability, the EVO 100 features a power stage factory-equipped with four EL34 tubes (or 6L6G depending on configuration), delivering up to 40 Watts per channel.

At the core of its performance is PrimaLuna's proprietary Adaptive AutoBias technology, which continuously monitors and adjusts valve bias in real-time. This eliminates the need for manual bias adjustments and significantly extends tube lifespan. The chassis—constructed from hand-welded heavy-gauge steel with a five-coat hand-rubbed finish—houses custom-designed, encapsulated toroidal power and output transformers. The EVO 100 also features a dedicated front-panel headphone output driven directly by the main tube amplification stage.
