The new M2 Integrated Amplifier advances the performance of this class of amplifier to a new level. The ease with which the M2 negotiates the loudspeaker load through even the most delicate yet demanding musical passages is almost unbelievable from such an elegant pure looking amplifier. Its control and authority appears to be backed by a state of the art power house! Resolution of detail is so harmonic and full of emotion that is reminiscent of our world acclaimed Roksan L1.5 reference preamplifier. Of course pedigree has played an important role but the relentless refinements, tests and never ending demands made this project come to life.

We are proud to present the M2 CD player and Integrated amplifier; perhaps the most iconoclastic electronic components from Roksan yet.

Features

  • Independent Analogue Output stage Power Supply
  • Full functional Roksan LCD system remote control (RMX-108)
  • Output protection with high current relays
  • Independent Preamplifier stage Power Supply
  • Thermally controlled fan assisted heat-sink cooling
  • -20dB mute function
  • 350VA ultra low noise, Power section Toroidal transformer
  • 60VA ultra low noise, Pre section Toroidal transformer


The M2 Integrated amplifier’s independent power supplies combined with fully symmetrical complimentary circuit design ensure the amplifier uncovers even the most delicate detail and presents it majestically.

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Detail is sky high and the M2 is never strained even with demanding

 material ”

 

 

Roksan M2 Whathifi
October 2010

 

“This is an immensely capable amplifier that sounds far stronger than a rated outputs of 85 Watts per channel would suggest”

 

VERDICT:  “The Caspian M2 is an exceptional amplifier for the money.

It’s a big-hearted performer capable of drama and subtlety.”
