SYNTHESIS ROMA 98DC WOOD

The Roma series expands with a new product: the Roma 98DC, an 80-watt mono tube power amplifier. This amplifier stands out for its excellent sonic performance and high power, achieved through a pair of KT88 tubes in an ultralinear configuration. Iconic and powerful, it is capable of driving even the most demanding and power-hungry speakers, always delivering a pure and clean sound. A key element is the output transformer, entirely handmade within the company, featuring a particularly wide frequency response and very low distortion even at high power levels. The power meter of the Roma 98DC is distinguished by the wide movement of the needle, which covers the amplifier’s entire power range, making it easy to see the output level at a glance.

The Roma 98DC embodies Italian artisanal expertise and a passion for music, with every component carefully selected to ensure the highest sound quality and uncompromising reliability. Its design is elegant and refined, with a lacquered wooden front panel available in various colors and a valve protection grille that combines functionality and style. This power amplifier is the perfect choice for those seeking a high-power tube amplifier without sacrificing exceptional musicality, capable of enriching the listening experience with engaging and powerful sound.
