Mola-Mola Mola Mola Perca
The Mola Mola Perca marries truth-to-source transparency with remarkably controlled, forceful bass, opening recordings into a spacious, finely focused soundstage. Its compact Trajectum Class D design remains cool and virtually silent while delivering serious speaker grip. HiFi News and Positive Feedback found an unusually pure, musical and involving performance that belies its half-width dimensions.

Pros
Exceptional transparency and near-silent operation reveal low-level detail without adding obvious coloration or harshness.
Powerful, tightly controlled bass and confident dynamics give demanding loudspeakers real authority.
Compact, cool-running, solidly built chassis offers balanced and RCA inputs, selectable gain, and 12V triggering.
Cons
Closely spaced rear speaker terminals can make thick cables with spade connectors awkward to fit.
Its uncompromising neutrality exposes limitations in upstream components and poor recordings rather than smoothing them over.

What Reviewers Are Saying
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 96/100
Reviewers describe an unusually transparent, quiet and musically complete amplifier, combining Class-A-like emotional conviction with exceptional speed and control. It is repeatedly praised for making recordings feel immediate and fully alive while delivering unusually commanding low-frequency grip.
Transparency Resolution
97/100
HiFi News found the Perca offers an exceptionally clear view into both recordings and partnering equipment, likening its openness to a wall of bifold doors thrown open. Positive Feedback and Audiophiliac also report virtually no noise, no audible hiss at the speaker, exceptional purity, and a striking increase in low-level detail and immediacy.
Tonal Balance Musicality
95/100
Despite its incisive clarity, reviewers consistently hear the Perca as natural, full-bodied and emotionally persuasive rather than clinical. Hifi Pig heard Class-A-like conviction and musicality, while Positive Feedback praised its lack of coloration or harshness and its rare combination of purity and musical involvement.
Dynamics
96/100
The Perca is widely described as confident, effortless and exceptionally controlled with demanding music and speakers. HiFi News heard unprecedented bass impact and control from its PMC reference speakers, while Positive Feedback says it will drive whatever speakers are connected with ease; Audiophiliac also found its dynamic range highly impressive.
Soundstage Imaging
94/100
Hifi Pig reports a large, almost three-dimensional stage, while HiFi News highlights fabulous focus and a convincing sense of a piano occupying the room. Audiophiliac likewise found the recording's spatial information extraordinary, with the Perca making it easy to hear deeply into the mix.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Quality
94/100
Reviewers find the compact Perca exceptionally solid and carefully finished, with high-grade metal casework, clear labeling and a purposeful control layout. Its Class-A input stage, selectable RCA/XLR inputs and gain, 12V trigger, substantial power supply capacitors, cool-running operation, and stable 2-ohm capability reflect a thoroughly engineered design; closely spaced speaker terminals are the one practical setup caveat noted.
Value for Money
95/100
At roughly £7,299 or $9,850, the Perca is undeniably a premium purchase, and Audiophiliac explicitly calls it expensive. However, HiFi News considers it a serious high-end bargain that challenges rivals at much higher prices, while Hifi Pig and Positive Feedback both argue that its performance makes a strong case within this level of the market.

Manufacturer's Description — Mola-Mola
The Mola Mola Perca is a stereo power amplifier in our well-known half size chassis. Capable of delivering 150 Watts into an 8 Ohm load and doubling down to 300 Watts into 4 Ohm, it will drive any loudspeaker with ease, refinement, and clarity.
The ultra-low distortion class A input stages are implemented on a separate board, together with their own high performance voltage regulation.
Taking the NCORE® technology from our mother company Hypex Electronics as a reference point we set out to refine our Class D, self-oscillating principle and feedback concept, resulting in our proprietary Mola Mola Trajectum platform which is also applied in the Mola Mola Kula integrated amplifier.
To cater to a wider range of applications a new gain selection feature is added which enables switching between 22dB and 28dB. The Mola Mola Perca features selectable balanced and single ended inputs, Furutech binding posts, and an on/off trigger connector.
