Pathos – INPOL2 MKII

Pathos – INPOL2 MKII
The return of tradition

InPoL2 MkII leaves the previous switching power supply for the traditional linear power supply (transformer – bridge – capacitors) so beloved by audiophiles. Leaving the 45W at 8Ω unchanged, the power at 4Ω has increased: this has increased BIAS current, which has necessitated larger radiators than in the previous version. The power supply was redesigned in a dual-mono configuration: 2 linear, shielded toroidal transformers (one per channel), 2 rectifier bridges (1 per channel), and 4 x 22mF capacitors (2 per channel). With a higher BIAS current the sound, the musicality, the transparency of the InPoL remain, the body and the precision gain, especially in the bass.

Volume

The volume, as in the previous InPoL2, uses fully balanced attenuators with relay switching, which select high quality and precision resistors.
