The PrimaLuna EVO 400 Integrated is the flagship vacuum tube integrated amplifier in PrimaLuna’s acclaimed EVO Series.

Engineered without compromise to deliver ultimate dynamic range, authority, and acoustic refinement, it represents the absolute pinnacle of the Dutch manufacturer's tube design.

Compared to the EVO 300, the EVO 400 doubles the output section by employing eight EL34 power tubes (four per channel) alongside six 12AU7 preamplifier/driver tubes. This massive architecture yields 70 Watts per channel in Ultra-Linear mode and 38 Watts per channel in Triode mode, instantly switchable via the included remote control. Hand-crafted with point-to-point wiring using silver-plated oxygen-free copper wire, the EVO 400 features custom-wound ultra-wide bandwidth transformers and an advanced Adaptive AutoBias system that enables effortless tube rolling without manual adjustment.
