The German company Vincent has updated its reference valve SA-T7 preamplifier, which received the MK suffix in the name. The main feature of the Vincent SA – T 7 MK preamplifier is the ability to receive wireless broadcasts from mobile gadgets, for which it is equipped with a Bluetooth 5.0 adapter . At the same time, digital inputs have been preserved – coaxial and optical.
The design of the component was also slightly changed, abandoning the chrome rings around the knobs for adjusting the volume, balance, timbres and input selector. As a result, the appearance of the component has become more calm and strict. Like its predecessor, NOS (New Old Stock) tubes are used in the preamplifier – tubes produced in the middle of the last century, but not previously used. The circuit has four 6SCH51P pentodes, four 6SCH9P pentodes and an 85A2 zener diode.
The Vincent SA – T 7 MK tube preamp is available in black or silver finishes. The recommended retail price of new items in Germany is 3,099 euros .
