The preamp SA-31 has been a staple in our portfolio of hybrid preamps for a long time. In fact, it is our 2nd preamp that was already launched in 1996 and replaced the LS-1. We have no kept the SA-31’s only out of sentimental reasons, but for the almost impossibility to design a preamp with similar sound quality in this price segment. After many customers asked us to relaunch the SA-31, we did that completely after some consideration. The result is the new hybrid preamp SA-32! The basic design is similar to its predecessor. As we have added some new features to the preamp, completely overhauled and improved its circuits, it was necessary to enlarge the housing.

The second visible alterations are the changed connection terminals. The SA-32 has next to the usual RCA inputs and outputs also symmetrical connection terminals. A high-quality XLR cable (length 1 m) is included (see picture).

Also, according to customer’s wishes, we have added a comfortable remote control with an aluminium case. The loudness function has been replaced by a gain decrease. Meaning that by pressing the frontal switch the preamp gain is decreased by 8 dB. This allows to connect also power amps to the preamp with a higher amplification factor without any problems.

In comparison to its predecessor four type 6N16 tubes instead of two tubes are used from now on. The first two tubes are placed at the input section. Two more tubes sit in front of the output after the tone control. The complete sound characteristic becomes more naturally and precise. The relaunched switch provides also a better dynamic and more musicality.

Enjoyment and fun are important with the new SA-32.
