The new Olympia line of integrated and power amplifiers combines "cutting-edge technology, refined craftsmanship, and Fezz Audio's signature sound quality" and promises an "unparalleled listening experience".
FEZZ OLYMPIA EVO
The Olympia EVO is a dual-mono integrated vacuum tube amplifier featuring eight KT88 tubes alongside a pair of 12AX7 and 12AU7 valves, resulting in a quoted 2x100 W nominal output and <0.1% (below 100 W); <1% (at full power) total harmonic distortion (THD) figure.
The newly designed remote control enables volume adjustment, source selection, and power on/off functionality. A handy "standby" mode and a 2-minute pre-heating cycle optimise operating conditions and extend tube lifespan.
The 420x380x200 mm Olympia EVO offers three RCA stereo inputs and also features an optional equipment card slot, allowing for future expansions such as Bluetooth connectivity, a phono stage, or a DAC. Its advanced electronic tube protection system replaces traditional glass fuses, enhancing reliability and safeguarding the vacuum tube circuitry.
The automatic bias adjustment system ensures consistent performance, eliminating the need for manual fine-tuning. Additionally, the dual-mono design promises exceptional stereo imaging and an expansive soundstage.
FEZZ OLYMPIA EVO MONO
The Fezz Olympia EVO Mono is the brand's first fully balanced mono power amplifier. It is powered by a specially designed microprocessor-controlled bias system to deliver over 150W per channel using 4 x KT88 tubes in a parallel push-pull configuration.
Measuring 355x380x195 mm and weighing 17kg per channel, the Olympia EVO Mono boasts the same THD figures as its integrated stablemate alongside being compatible with 4 Ω and 8 Ω speaker loads.
Maciej Lachowski from Fezz told StereoNET:
We recognised the need for a more powerful integrated amplifier. While our Titania model delivers 2x45W, some users sought greater output. We aimed to offer this high-end performance at a competitive price.
The Olympia Series is available now, with pricing for the Olympia Integrated Amplifier starting at £5,495, while the Olympia Power Amplifier begins at £9,995 for a pair.
