The SA-32MK is a preamplifier from Vincent, sharing the SA-32's chassis dimensions with an exceptionally wide bandwidth. The SA-32MK brings Vincent's more accomplished current engineering to dedicated line-level signal control.

Key specs that matter

One balanced XLR input and four single-ended inputs are provided. Input sensitivity is 500mV, with output voltage at 2V. Input impedance is 47,000 ohms on both connections. Frequency response spans an exceptionally wide 20Hz to 50,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB - wider than the standard SA-32's 20kHz limit. Signal-to-noise ratio exceeds 90dB unweighted, with total harmonic distortion plus noise at 0.1%. At 430 x 77 x 360mm and 6.2kg, the SA-32MK shares the standard SA-32's chassis dimensions and weight exactly.

Sound and use context

Expect a dependable amplification character reflecting the exceptionally wide 20Hz-50kHz bandwidth, representing Vincent's more accomplished current preamplifier engineering.

Pairing

Vincent's own power amplifier catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings within the same broader catalogue.

Alternatives

Vincent's own standard SA-32 offers a more restricted-bandwidth alternative within the same broader preamplifier catalogue.
