SMSL VMV A1 Pro - Integrated Amplifier on GaN FET Transistors
The SMSL company presented the SMSL VMV A1 Pro power amplifier - using lnfineon's latest GaN FET transistors, with a switching frequency of up to 1 MHz. Such unique circuitry guarantees, according to the company, absolutely natural sound and up to 400 W of output power (2 x 85 W at 2 Ohms, 2 x 160 W at 4 Ohms and up to 400 W at 4 Ohms in mono mode). For a device weighing 1.56 kg, these figures are amazing!
The SMSL VMV A1 Pro uses TI's advanced volume chip PGA2311 with ultra-low distortion as a volume control system. Stereo pure amplifier pass-through mode is also available. The model also has an XLR input mono mode (volume is not adjustable).
The SMSL VMV A1 Pro uses high-quality components that meet audiophile quality standards. With a signal-to-noise ratio of 109 dB and 0.003% distortion, the TTX of the model looks brilliant.
