It is always a big occasion when a new Roksan range comes along. Roksan are not a company who change a winning formula very often, so the introduction of the Attessa series brings some new tech, inovative design and a fresh look at a modern Hifi system.
Compromising of the Attessa Turntable, Integrated Amplifier, Streaming Amplifier and a CD Transport, it looks to be a new benchmark in mid priced Audio equipment.
The Roksan Attessa Streaming Amplifier looks classically Roksan, with its half chiselled facia, and features a single multi use dial with built in haptics. Built around the Bluesound Blue OS Streaming platform, you have full control over your Attessa and full integration with all the Hi Resolution Streaming services as well as everythign else Bluesound brings. Digital and Analogue inputs, including a MM Phono stage, are all covered and under the lid boasts a 130w per channel amplifier to drive even the most demanding speakers.
5 year warranty is also included with all new purchases.
