Vincent Audio Sa 32 Hybrid Stereo Preamplifier (Black)

The Sa-32 Brings The Best Of Two Worlds To Audiophiles. The Amplifier Circuitry Of This Preamplifier Combines The Advantages Of Both Transistor Amplifiers And Vacuum Tube Components. You Get The Golden Age Sonic Benefits Of Classic Tube Gear Along With The Reliability And Control Of Solid State Gear. And It Goes Without Saying That The Sa-32 Delivers The Highest Manufacturing Quality And Excellent Value. All The Best Similarities And Differences: The Basic Design Of The Sa-32 Is Similar To Its Predecessor, The Sa-31. Because Vincent Added Some New Features To The Preamp, While Completely Overhauling And Improved Its Circuits, It Was Necessary To Enlarge The Casework. In Comparison To Its Predecessor, The Sa-32 Uses Four 6N16 Tubes Instead Of Only Two. The First Two Tubes Are Placed At The Input Section. Two More Tubes Sit In Front Of The Output After The Tone Control. Consequently, The Overall Sonic Signature Is More Natural Sounding And Precise And With Better Dynamics And Added Musicality. In Addition To The Rca Inputs And Outputs Used By The Sa-31, The Sa-32 Includes Balanced Xlr Connection Terminals. A High-Quality Xlr Cable (Length 1.0M) Is Included. Vincent Also Provides A Beautifully Made Remote Control With An Aluminum Case That Feels Good In The Hand. The Loudness Function Of The Sa-31 Has Been Replaced By A Gain Decrease. Therefore, Pressing The Front Panel Switch Decreases Preamp Gain By 8 Db. This Allows You To Connect Power Amps With A Higher Amplification Factor To The Preamp Without Any Difficulties.
