The Rogue Audio Atlas Magnum III is a stereo tube power amplifier designed to deliver 100 watts per channel of pure tube power, capable of realistic volume levels with clarity and presence rivaling much more expensive amplifiers. It features an oversized linear power supply for dynamic headroom, a new Ultralinear/Triode switch allowing for both slam and smooth tube sound modes, and first-rate tube circuitry with short signal paths and low noise design. The amplifier includes upgraded power supply, signal tubes, coupling capacitors, Cardas rhodium binding posts, and precision components for transparency and air in musical reproduction. It has a 20 Hz to 30 kHz bandwidth, 4 and 8 ohm transformer taps, slow start turn on sequencing, gold plated RCA inputs, and a machined aluminum faceplate. The unit is fully tested, burned-in, auditioned, and hand built in the USA.
