Интегральные усилители — Vinshine Audio Vinshine x Kinki Studio DAZZLE

The DAZZLE is a solid-state stereo integrated amplifier developed jointly by Vinshine Audio of Singapore and the Chinese maker Kinki Studio, and Vinshine calls it its flagship integrated amplifier. It was unveiled at Hi End Asia Singapore in 2025 at a price of SGD 10,994, about GBP 6,450. The Vinshine edition adds its own wiring, fuse and connector upgrades to the Kinki Studio design.

Key specs that matter

Output is 300 W per channel into 8 ohm and 560 W per channel into 4 ohm with both channels driven. Frequency response runs from 10 Hz to 30 kHz, THD+N is 0.0054 percent, and signal to noise exceeds 115 dB at 1 kHz. There are three RCA line inputs at 50 kohm, two XLR inputs at 100 kohm and one preamplifier bypass input, and two pairs of 4 mm binding posts that also take spade connectors. The case measures 440 x 410 x 170 mm including spikes and weighs 33 kg. Standby consumption is 0.8 W and maximum draw is 1600 W.

Engineering and use context

At its core sits Kinki Studio's newly developed SSCLD module, short for Super Symmetry Current Linear Drive, which the makers describe as aimed at wide bandwidth, low distortion and linear behaviour. An independent voltage servo cancels DC offset, which keeps capacitors out of the signal path, and the preamplifier path uses a short direct layout. Each channel drives the loudspeaker through twelve EXICON MOSFETs. The layout is dual mono, with two 800 W low magnetic loss toroidal transformers, one per channel, and eight separate power supplies for the different stages. Each channel has its own capacitor bank combining Vishay MKP film capacitors with reservoir capacitors specified by Kinki Studio. All circuits sit on 3U gold-plated circuit boards. Vinshine's changes replace the internal AC, DC, signal and speaker wiring with Exact Express FLAME cable and fit six ShoonTH fuses and a ShoonTH gold-plated IEC inlet, all cryogenically treated at minus 196 degrees Celsius. The ShoonTH binding posts are oxygen-free copper plated in copper, silver, palladium and gold. The mechanics come from the Kinki Studio 79 Series, with a floating structure that suspends the main chassis above its base and directional spike feet meant to drain vibration.

Pairing

The high current output stage is intended for loudspeakers that are hard to drive, including low sensitivity and low impedance designs. The bypass input lets an AV processor or separate preamplifier use the DAZZLE as a stereo power amplifier.

Alternatives

Vinshine Audio has no other integrated amplifier under its own name, as the other integrated models it sells carry the Kinki Studio or CHoco brands.
