EVO-AMERICANO Integrated Amplifier
To beat the inflated prices world wide , we want to introduce a simpler integrated amplifier with just the 6SN7/CV181 as front end.
Sized to be 16” wide x 12.5” deep. 3 Inputs.

Hammonds Canada. The 302AX is engineered specific for running the 45 and 2A3 Triode Tubes. While having all countries voltage from 100V-240V. CSA/SA Compliance. Hammond is one of the oldest audio transformer manufacture - 80 Years+ of continuously running. And the latest batch is even higher quality - even running a whole afternoon, the temperature rise is only warm to touch. Hammonds is known to be rug and durable, and definitely one of the major supplier of transformers in North America with plants across Canada, USA, and Oceania.

The output transformer is a joint design between Triode Lab and Hammonds. It’s engineered specific for HIFI applications (20 hz - 20 khz), on running both 45/2A3. Using a 10W core sized transformer which is the ideal (using their 30W version is too large for the 45/2A3 power, when signal exit the larger 30W core, the highs is already diminished). That is why we have to design one that is more suitable. And there is no ultra linear taps and 4 ohm tap - making this proprietary spec output transformer even more pure and less-losses.
2A3 EVO-Americano SPECS:
Class A Autobias 3.5 Watts (Conservative rated) - No, it does not clip like other 2A3 amps on the market or went out of steam prematurely.
Output Transformers : HAMMONDS x Triode Lab 3.5K OPT
Choke Transformer : HAMMONDS Canada
Power Transformer : HAMMONDS Canada
RCA Connectors : CMC USA or Cardas USA (2 Pairs)
Binding Posts : CMC USA Gold
Coupling Caps : Mundorf Germany ZN Coupling Caps
Volume Control : Alps Japan Blue Vol Pot
Selector Switch : Lorlin UK Selector Switch (Upgrade to ELMA Swiss Premium Metal Switch for $100)
Rectifier Tube Socket : QQQ Japan
AC Inlet : Furutech Japan Gold IEC
Tube Used : 6SN7 Pair / 2A3 Pair / 5U4 Rectifier Tube x 1 (Strictly 5U4, no others because the Hammmonds PT is running at 300V, running some other rectifiers such as 5AR4/GZ37 will be too high, and no, not all rectifiers are interchangeable, and no - 5AR4/GZ34 is NOT 5U4, strictly 5U4 only - the American hifi industry standard. For better sound, 5V4/GZ32 (Except Sino / Ruso) and 5T4 is the only two permitted because of consistency and reliability. Use any others at your own risk! We will not answer questions to rectifiers due to liability. (For example - we often asked if their 60-80 year old rectifier can be used while it’s so fragile and can die off anytime).
