“…if you want to hear the important musical detail presented in a coherent, clear-cut fashion this pairing has remarkably little competition in the two box arena. There are a few integrated amps which give them a run for their money in one respect or another but nothing comes to mind which seems like a better overall package.” Jason Kennedy Hi Fi+ No75.

Hegel HD30 (EISA Award Winner)
The Hegel HD30 is the ultimate digital control centre. It does everything you can dream of, and does so with world-class quality. There is an abundance of inputs, ranging from balanced AES/EBU and BNC connectors, to Network and USB connections – with the latter also accepting DSD signals. The built-in volume attenuator allows you to connect directly to a power amplifier or a pair of active loudspeakers. Highly advanced power supplies and careful lay-out brings the noise floor down towards a mindblowing – 150dB. In
LINE MAGNETIC LM-211IA
LM-211IA- Integrated Amplifier – Push Pull EL34 – 2x32W
The Line Magnetic integrated amplifier LM-211IA is a push-pull amplifier with 4x EL34 tubes in Class AB amplification and delivers 2x15W in triode mode and 2x32W in ultra-linear mode. It has 4 balanced line inputs and 4/8Ω output groups.
The rear-illuminated front panel meter is used to adjust polarization of the tubes. The use of high-quality components (Realcap capacitors, ALPS potentiometer) wired in the air, for the most part, is the guarantee of exemplary reliability. Its transformers output are of EI type, specially designed for power supply. The LM-211IA delivers dynamic, rich and natural sound.
Pathos Adrenalin
Pathos Adrenalin
The Adrenalin amplifier represents the point of arrival of the INPOL (“Inseguitore a Pompa Lineare” – Linear Pump Tracker) concept.
The essence of such an apparatus is that of a tube amplifier featuring a very sensitive and refined timbre, combined with a surprising and amazing output capacity.
It really seems that Pathos designers and technicians achieved their goal: an iron fist concealed in a velvet glove.
InPol (Inseguitore Pompa Linear – Linear Pump Follower) is a system patented by Pathos Acoustics which has enjoyed great success and won many awards.
Inpol devices have a special sonic personality obtainable only by means of this particular circuit design – fully balanced in Class A using a single solid-state component in follower configuration, with high current gain and with voltage gain together. The valve amplifier amplifies the input signal voltage and InPol supplies the current to drive the loudspeakers without any further amplification. In this way, the signal is entrusted to the valves and becomes a true copy of the original, with all the quality, purity and harmonic content of the original.
This technology allows an increase in the theoretical output in pure Class A of between 25% and 50% together with a low output impedance which is fundamental for the damping factor and further improved by the double InPol.

LINE MAGNETIC LM-34IA
LM-34IA- Integrated Amplifier – Push Pull AB EL34 – 2x40W
Forty watts per channel, Class AB Integrated Stereo Amplifier with EL34 output power tubes, 12AX7 and 12AU7 input tubes.
Standard with EL34 output tubes. Want to enjoy some other types of power tubes? That is why we have tube selector here. LM-34IA has tube selector switch and you can choose to replace the standard EL34 with KT range of power tubes include KT66, KT70, KT90, KT100 and 6550. Different from other inputs Pre-In offers you a possibility to connect to some other Preamplifier so that you can the LM-34IA as a power amplifier.
Specially designed EI transformers for power supply and two EI output transformers with wide bandwidth are applied. Handmade construction with the finest point-to-point wiring and special audiophiles components has carefully been selected by our designers.
User bias control has been used for bias adjustment and one meter has been added to the top plate to allow you to monitor bias with ease.
Pathos Logos
Pathos Logos: Integrated amplifier (HiDac Optional)
Close to the spirit that has animated since its origin has always been involved in the search for new solutions and improvement of its machines for Music.
E with this approach that Pathos after more than ten years after the introduction of the integrated Pathos Logos presents its evolution MKII.
Pathos is not usual to introduce updated versions of its models except in the presence of substantial and meaningful new ideas to offer its loyal customers and in general to all lovers of good music.
Indeed behind the usual original design the new Logos MKII hide the introduction of a series of new solutions some thought in order to further enhance the sound of the amplifier and others to meet the demand for versatility and practicality that a demanding clientele pretends that is also present in a high-end device.

Pathos Inpol Heritage
Pathos Inpol Heritage – Integrated Amplifier without Compromises
InPol Heritage represents the projectual legacy of the late Pathos co-founder, designer and inventor of InPol, Engineer Giani Borinato.
The team of Pathos technical designers pushed themselves to the very highest level with this unprecedented project; an enormous amount of time was spent with this product, which is characterised by components of the highest quality and the customary absence of compromises.
The digital bias/gain set technology with intelligent control is entrusted to the same microprocessor which regulates the volume, thus guaranteeing the performance of the amplifier itself and its ability to drive the loudspeakers efficiently.
Thanks to the (optional) HiDac Mk2 converter, music lovers who want the very best from the latest digital sources will find their demands fully met.
