VINCENT AUDIO SA-T7. Tube line preamplifier

Standard circuit technology does not fully exploit the potential of a valve. With the SA-T7 we have developed a preamplifier that takes the pure amplification of valuable musical signals to a level never before conceived with tubes. Thanks to the newly developed BestPentode circuit (developed by chartered engineer Frank Blöhbaum), current distribution noise typical of pentodes is now a thing of the past.

Innovation at a fair price. Developed and produced in Germany.

The transfer qualities of amplifiers are currently being challenged by modern signal sources. Traditional (classical) technology and ECC81/82/83/88 do not cover the full potential of tube technology.

We developed a Vincent SA-T7 preamplifier that increases the pure amplification of precious tube audio signals to a level never before realized. This is possible thanks to a patented circuit technology: a new BestPentode circuit developed by Dipl-Ing (Master of Engineering) Frank Blöhbaum eliminates the typical electrical current noise of pentodes. The BestPentode device has a higher small noise amplification level than other triodes. The E180F / 6SCH9P / 6SCH51P type high level grating pentodes show their full potential. The valves are a new old stock (NOS) storage that was used to amplify high frequency signals 24/7 in telecommunications.

The impedance converter consists of a 6S3P-EV type grating triode, a long-life Russian military valve that was used in MIG airborne radar. The BestPentode device's silent power supply connectors provide extremely pure audio transmission. We developed our own module called Vimala (Sanskrit meaning is "pure, transparent and clear") for this purpose.

You can adjust your individual listening habits with an additional 6SCH9P, 6S3P-EV and Vimala gain module that precisely controls treble and bass sounds. It can be optionally disabled. This extremely low output resistance of modern amplifier technology (only 1 Ohm) makes amplifier outputs with only resistive characteristics possible. Therefore, stable transmission in the general frequency range and lossless control of sensitive connecting cables are guaranteed. Two separate output resistors (50 and 600 ohms) are provided for easy connections.

Thanks to the newly manufactured BestPentode circuit technology in series with an exquisite pairing of Vimala power supply, a highly linear amplification with almost no noise and super speed is created for an exceptional music listening experience. We at Vincent are very proud of our SA-T7 because it is the peak of many years' experience in building innovative tube amplifiers. Innovation at fair prices that is developed and finally assembled in Germany.
