Cambridge Audio Evo 150 DeLorean Edition All-In-One Streaming Integrated Amplifier – Cambridge Audio

Some designs are timeless
Back in the late 80’s the DeLorean DMC12 became iconic for its bare metal design. And now it’s the turn of the EVO 150. Music, stripped bare.

With Evo 150, Cambridge Audio has brought your audio past and present into the future – all you need to do is add speakers to enjoy superb high-resolution audio quality from one elegant, discreet box.

And thanks to its suite of digital and analogue inputs, as well as its high-quality digital-to-analogue convertor, Evo can be the heart of your hi-fi system for years to come.

Two Icons Meet
Now, iconic automotive design meets 50 years of audio experience and a passion for elevating the emotion of music. Introducing the Limited Edition DeLorean Evo 150 from Cambridge Audio.

Cambridge Audio’s Partnership Is More Than Skin Deep
Cambridge is the proud audio partner for DeLorean, developing the next generation of in-car audio experiences. The EVO 150 DeLorean Edition is the first of a line of special projects, taking design elements from the car that shaped a generation, into the sound that’s shaping the future of hi-fi.

One Chassis: Two Body Kits
Customize your look with interchangeable side panels included in the box.

Classic bare metal or signature front grille styling featuring the recognisable DeLorean logo emblems.

Bluetooth Convenience. Hi-Res Sound Quality
Often nothing’s more convenient than streaming via Bluetooth. Evo takes it to the max with aptX HD Bluetooth – which features wireless, high-definition music streaming from compatible devices – including Cambridge Audio’s Alva turntables. And because Evo also transmits with Bluetooth aptx HD, it’s perfect for private listening on compatible Hi-Res wireless headphones.

Easy to Set up, Easy to Upgrade
It couldn’t be simpler. Connect Evo 150 to the mains and to your speakers. Open StreamMagic, to connect to the network, then fire up your favorite music streaming service. Pick a tune, press play and adjust the volume to suit. When you’re ready, you can dig deeper to set Evo 150 up just how you want it, adding functionality as you go.

Made By Music
Evo 150 uses the best audio components, like the ESS SABRE ES9018k2m Reference DAC. And then we bring every one of our 55+ years of audio know-how to bear. The result is a performance that celebrates the talent of musicians and producers and retains the original raw emotive power and detail.

Complete Control
Evo is intuitive and straightforward to operate, no matter if you’re using its supplied remote control, or our simple yet thorough StreamMagic app, or its physical controls – including the large dual-concentric dial, on the unit’s fascia.

Neat and Easy Placement
At 317mm wide, roughly the size of an album vinyl sleeve, Evo will sit neatly where you need it to. But thanks to its award winning design and all-around good looks, it really deserves to be center stage.

Designed to Thrill, Built to Last

The HiFi Rose RA280 integrated amplifier with built-in phono pre-amp

The RA280 is an integrated amplifier that innovative technologies used in RA180. Enjoy pure natural sound as close to the original sound as you can get with the RA280; a near-perfect sound that transcends the boundaries between digital and analog technologies with excellent linearity achieved through strong power damping and short dead time. The RA280 offers a special listening experience that lets you feel the true essence of music. 

Key Features

The power supply inside the RA280 is specifically designed to stay efficient and high speed even under complex loads. HiFi Rose used silicon carbide FETs instead of the standard Silicon FETs in other power supplies. These high-tech devices have high voltage and heat resistance, allowing the power supply to supply maximum power while remaining efficient and cool. This well-designed power supply also applies a 2.5kW power factor correction circuit with a high-capacity condenser to maintain top performance at all loads while keeping stable and reliable.

The RA280 uses a next-gen advanced Class D design developed in-house to take the acoustic performance of traditional Class D amps to a higher level. HiFi Rose calls this tech Class AD. Class D amps are considered much more efficient than traditional Class AB amps, but most have a pretty harsh and edgy sound. HiFi Rose’s Advanced Class AD design resolves these problems with new, innovative materials. The switching output devices are the enemy of sound quality in these high-efficiency designs. Dead time and a slower switching speed can cause noise and distortions to the audio and were responsible for the noise and gritty-sounding nature of early class D designs. Using GaN over traditional silicon transistors allows the switching speed to be much faster, allowing a dead time of 1/10 of silicon transistors. This gives these new class D amplifiers a linear response, allowing them to have a natural, smooth sound quality that aligns more with class A amplifier designs.

Product details:

• Stereo integrated amp with balanced XLR and phono inputs
• Class AD amplification uses super-efficient GaN (Gallium nitride) FET output switching for smooth, accurate sound
• 250 watts x 2 into 8 ohms
• 250 watts x 2 into 4 ohms
• Frequency response: 20-20,000 Hz (or 10-85,000 Hz @ -3dB)
• Signal-to-noise ratio:
  • 109dB (balanced)
  • 109dB (unbalanced)
  • 85dB (MM phono)

Front-panel features
