Magma Evo
Pure single-ended power delivered by the formidable GM100 triode.
The Magma Evo stands as the definitive expression of NAT Audio engineering, designed to merge the delicate transparency of single-ended triode amplification with the raw power required for modern reference loudspeakers. At its centre is the colossal GM100 vacuum tube, which operates in a zero global feedback configuration to ensure the signal path remains entirely free from artificial correction or coloration.
Positioned as the flagship of our vacuum tube power amplifier range, this model is built for the listener who refuses to compromise on either scale or nuance. The circuit is designed with a minimalist architecture, removing coupling capacitors and inter-stage transformers to preserve the integrity of the source signal. The result is a level of immediacy and realism that is rarely achieved at such power levels.
Sonically, the Magma Evo is distinguished by its composure and rhythmic precision. It avoids the common tendency of high-power tube designs to sound overly warm or soft, instead offering a fast, articulate, and expansive presentation. It commands the loudspeaker with authority, revealing the hidden textures and spatial cues within complex recordings while maintaining a holographic sense of presence.
Key Features
01
GM100 triode output
Utilises the legendary GM100 direct-heated triode to achieve extreme power without sacrificing sonic purity.
02
Zero global feedback
The circuit operates without any global feedback loops to preserve the natural harmonic structure of the signal.
03
Selectable power settings
Provides the flexibility to choose between 170W and 60W outputs to accommodate various loudspeaker sensitivities.
04
Regulated power supply
Features independent regulation for input and output stages to ensure complete stability under demanding conditions.
05
Automatic bias system
Ensures the output tube operates at its optimal point without the need for manual adjustment.

Chapter 01
Engineering Vision
The Magma Evo was developed to challenge the limitations of vacuum tube amplification. By focusing on a direct-coupled, zero-feedback design, the engineering team has created a path that allows the GM100 tube to operate with maximum transparency. This approach reflects a commitment to technical honesty, prioritizing the removal of circuit-induced distortion over conventional design convenience.

Build & Materials
Every Magma Evo monoblock is constructed within a heavy-mass chassis that provides essential mechanical isolation. Internally, the unit is filled with laboratory-grade components, including custom-wound wide-bandwidth transformers and high-energy storage capacitors. This robust construction ensures that the amplifier remains stable and consistent, even when handling the massive currents required for peak dynamic performance.

Listening Notes
The Magma Evo is a revealing instrument that brings a sense of tangible scale to the listening room. It handles dense musical passages with complete composure, maintaining a clear separation between instruments while capturing the subtle decays and micro-dynamics of a performance. It is an ideal partner for systems where transparency and dynamic control are the primary requirements.
