Dayens Ecstasy IV Slim – an Amplifier for Purists

22.03.2025 05:22 | ~1 minute read

Serbian company Dayens has released an ascetic stereo power amplifier Dayens Ecstasy IV Slim – the model uses output stages on two pairs of Japanese transistors and provides (despite the compact slim case) 110 W per channel when working on loudspeakers with an impedance of 8 Ohms (2 x 160 W at 4 Ohms).

Dayens Ecstasy IV Slim operates in class A/B and is equipped with a large custom-made toroidal transformer. Cooling of the output stages is completely passive, using cast aluminum radiators. The circuit uses audiophile components of the highest class – for example, Mundorf Supreme EVO capacitors.
