ROKSAN ATTESSA RANGE OF HIFI COMPONENTS LAUNCHED
An instantly recognisable name of British HiFi, Roksan has launched their new Roksan Attessa range of HiFi.
Developed and engineered in the UK, the new Roksan Attessa range consists of a streaming amplifier, integrated amplifier, turntable and CD transport. The Attessa name comes from back in Roksan’s history and the early 1990s.
ROKSAN ATTESSA INTEGRATED AMPLIFIER
The Roksan Attessa Integrated Amplifier has a range of analogue and digital inputs. The latter is all routed to a high-performance Burr Brown 24bit/192kHz digital-to-analogue converter, whilst its analogue inputs include a phono stage for use with a turntable. It also has the benefit of aptX Bluetooth connectivity for casting streaming services from a smart device.
ROKSAN ATTESSA STREAMING AMPLIFIER
In addition to the comprehensive array of inputs of the integrated amplifier, the Attessa Streaming Amplifier has the added benefit of the BluOS, multi-room streaming platform. The Attessa Streaming Amplifier is compatible with more than 20 of the world’s leading streaming services and can stream wirelessly to as many as 64 zones. It has the same suite of digital inputs (all routed to the same high-performance Burr Brown 24bit/192kHz DAC that’s compatible with MQA and FLAC file formats) and is compatible with turntables. Wireless connectivity is simple and stable thanks to on-board aptX Bluetooth connectivity. There is a fully balanced pre-amplifier and a Roksan Caspian-derived toroidal transformer turning out up to 130 watts of power.
ROKSAN ATTESSA CD TRANSPORT
The disc transport does exactly what you’d expect – connects via digital coaxial to either Attessa amplifier, and transmits the digital audio information from the disc to the high-performance DAC. Using the MaestroUnite app means an Attessa amplifier and Attessa CD transport combine into a single system after set-up, and the UK-designed custom firmware on board the disc transport ensures error-free, accurate playback.
ROKSAN ATTESSA TURNTABLE
The Roksan Attessa turntable was developed and assembled in the UK, and comes complete with unipivot tonearm, a high-quality pre-fitted Roksan Dana cartridge and switchable phono stage (which makes it compatible with any amplifier you like). Just like the rest of the Attessa range, this turntable is built high standards using premium materials, the platter, for example, is high-mass weighted glass with a bonded aluminium edge dampener. The chassis design, with its feet designed to isolate it from external vibration, is directly influenced by Xerxes, Roksan’s iconic first turntable.
