Vincent Audio has updated the popular hybrid integrated amplifier Vincent Audio SV-500, which was named Vincent Audio SV-500 MK. The new product is equipped with a new DAC chip that supports 32-bit / 384 kHz resolution, a Bluetooth module and an HDMI ARC input. Like its predecessor, the Vincent Audio SV-500 MK input stages are implemented on tubes, and the output stages are transistor ones, which allows it to develop a power of 50 watts when working on a load with a nominal resistance of 8 ohms and 80 watts for 4 ohms in each of the channels. The switching arsenal of the SV-500 MK integrated amplifier from Vincent Audio includes two analog linear unbalanced inputs on RCA connectors, digital optical and coaxial ports, an HDMI ARC input. There are both linear and variable preamp outputs.

More components

Integrated amplifiers
Vincent SV-500
The SV-500 is equipped with four analog inputs (RCA connectors) and two digital inputs (RCA and optical). There is also an adjustable preamp output (for example, for connecting a subwoofer) and a recording output. The cool look is successfully complemented by a stylish remote control with an aluminum case.
Integrated amplifiers
Vincent SV-228
The Vincent SV-228 integrated amplifier with a volume level meter built into the front panel will replace the SV-227 MK model. The hybrid design implies the simultaneous use of 6N4, ECC82 lamps and transistors in the output stage.
Integrated amplifiers
Vincent SV-200
The SV-200 model is the "younger brother" of the SV-237MK and SV-700 integrated amplifiers. Despite the compact design, the company's engineers made only a few compromises. It retains high definition and low noise levels. The sound signal is processed by two 6N1 lamps.
Integrated amplifiers
Vincent SV-237MKII
The SV-237 MK II uses hybrid amplification technology. For Vincent, this solution means "the best of both worlds." Two 6N1P lamps operate in the pre-amplification section, giving the sound naturalness and warmth, while the power amplifier section uses 4 transistors, providing excellent dynamics and output power of up to 250 Watts (RMS) per channel.

Vincent SV-737
In addition to the amplifier function, the device can act as a digital-to-analog converter, as well as a network Wi-Fi player. It also has a built-in Bluetooth module for wireless music playback from a smartphone. The preamp in the model is made on 6M2 PE V, 6N1P and 85A2 lamps, and the output stage is fully transistor-based and capable of developing 180 Watts at 8 ohms and 300 Watts at 4 ohms load. Moreover, the first 10 Watts are reproduced in Class A.
