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.
The Vincent Audio SV-500 MK preamplifier stages feature two 6N1 dual triodes and a 12AX7 dual triode. The tubes are designed for a longer lifespan, conservatively estimated at 10 years. The Vincent Audio SV-500 MK Hybrid Integrated Amplifier is available in silver and black finishes with a suggested retail price of $1,499.95.
