The SA-32 is a preamplifier from Vincent, built with comprehensive balanced-and-single-ended connectivity. The SA-32 brings Vincent's considered engineering to dedicated line-level signal control.
Key specs that matter
One balanced XLR input and five single-ended inputs are provided, with one balanced and two single-ended outputs. Input sensitivity is 500mV, with output voltage at 2V. Input impedance is 47,000 ohms on both connections. Frequency response spans 20Hz to 20,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Signal-to-noise ratio exceeds 90dB unweighted, with total harmonic distortion plus noise under 0.1%. At 430 x 77 x 360mm and 6.2kg, the SA-32 maintains a manageable preamplifier chassis reflecting Vincent's considered engineering standards.
Sound and use context
Expect a dependable amplification character reflecting the strong over-90dB signal-to-noise figure, consistent with Vincent's broader accomplished value-focused engineering philosophy.
Pairing
Vincent's own power amplifier catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings within the same broader catalogue.
Alternatives
Vincent's own SA-32 AE offers a related model within the same broader preamplifier catalogue.
