Description
The Pathos InPol Legacy Integrated Amplifier represents the pinnacle of Pathos’ engineering and a powerful tribute to co-founder Gaetano Zanini. Following the tradition of excellence set by the InPol Heritage, which honored Gianni Borinato, InPol Legacy pushes the boundaries of amplifier design to celebrate over 25 years of relentless innovation.
This integrated amplifier is more than just a high-end audio component—it embodies the company’s core philosophy: exceptional musicality, uncompromising design, and sonic precision. Crafted with no limitations on size or weight, the InPol Legacy integrates Pathos’ patented technologies in a strikingly elegant form, delivering an immersive audio experience that is rich, expressive, and deeply nuanced.
Uncompromising Performance with Dual InPoL Technology
At the heart of the InPol Legacy is the revolutionary dual InPoL (Linear Pump Follower) amplification technology in a fully balanced bridged configuration. Unlike traditional designs, InPoL eliminates feedback, reduces distortion, and operates in pure Class A, resulting in extraordinary musical realism. The amplifier uses a single solid-state component as a follower with a voltage gain of 1 and high current gain, ensuring dynamic accuracy and sonic purity.
The dual configuration not only increases power output but also maintains a compact circuit footprint. Complemented by a tube preamp stage using 4 x ECC803 TungSol and 2 x 6H30 Sovtek tubes, InPol Legacy offers a sound signature that is smooth, full-bodied, and fatigue-free—perfectly aligned with Pathos’ warm and detailed house sound.
Advanced Engineering for Superior Audio Fidelity
Every component in the InPol Legacy has been selected for performance without compromise. Drawing power architecture from Pathos’ flagship Adrenalin and InPower models, the amplifier features two massive toroidal transformers, each powering an independent mono channel for true dual-mono operation. Capacitive-inductive filters and stabilized power supplies ensure the cleanest possible signal flow.
A separate tube power supply with dedicated transformers for each channel enhances channel separation and soundstage precision. Signal paths are shielded, and the 100-step passive volume control uses precision resistors and relay switches to maintain sonic integrity. The result is a dynamic, noise-free performance capable of handling the most delicate passages and the most demanding crescendos with equal grace.
Design, Handling, and Final Touches
Physically, the Pathos InPol Legacy Integrated Amplifier is a commanding presence, weighing in at 140 kg. This mass reflects the density and quality of internal components, and to aid installation, Pathos includes a specialized wheeled transport case and lifting brackets. Recognizing that standard audio racks may not support this weight, Pathos has also designed a dedicated cabinet to house the amplifier safely and stylishly.
The amplifier includes both balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) inputs, Neutrik and WBT connectors, and offers an output power of 2 x 100 watts into 8 ohms with an impressive frequency response of 2 Hz to 100 kHz. In every respect—from audio fidelity to craftsmanship and functionality—the InPol Legacy stands as the ultimate expression of Pathos' integrated amplifier mastery.
