| Anyone have experience with Vincent hybrid gear and electrostatics? Hi Mike,Just did a search and see you are in Arizona? Unfortunately looks like it counts out the SP-998's. Good luck in your search.I did find in SP-T700 manual. "Only use loudspeakers with a nominal impedence of at least 4 ohm." | |
| Anyone have experience with Vincent hybrid gear and electrostatics? My thoughts are probably not. They are only specced down to 4 ohm.Manual also states "if a second set of Speakers connected, both have a nominal impedence of at least 8 ohm!What country are you in? The Vincent SP-998's would do that without breaki... | |
| Anyone have experience with Vincent hybrid gear and electrostatics? Not sure this helps, I own the Vincent SA-T8 & SP-T700 mono's. I have heard the SA-T7 Pre. Both are fine Pre-Amps.The SP-T700 Mono's are quite nice hybrids, with a touch of warmth and a "punchy" Bass rather than the slam of my big SP-998 Mono'... | |
| Recommnedation for the BEST SOUNDING integrated amp up to $3500 Impossible to recommend anything without knowing what Speakers you'll be using? What type of music? What Sound Signature do you prefer? What Source/Sources will you be using? Inbuilt Phono required? | |
| Vincent Audio tube preamp SA-T7 & SP-332 power amp @gryphongryph Thanks for the links. I had seen the I-fidelity review before. In fact I have the SP-T700's in my Collection. Hifi4all are extremely effusive in their praise of the SA-T7. Depending on what "flavour" you favour you won't go wrong wit... | |
| Vincent Audio tube preamp SA-T7 & SP-332 power amp Yes. That would be interesting to read. English Translation? | |
| Vincent Audio tube preamp SA-T7 & SP-332 power amp @gryphongryph Are you able to Post Links to the Tests? I've searched but unable to find.FWIW, 3 friends/acquaintances A/B'd SA-T7 & SA-T8 (both Stock), all 3 including owner of SA-T7, preferred the SA-T8.I then A/B'd, SA-T8 was a Clear Winner.... | |
| Vincent Audio tube preamp SA-T7 & SP-332 power amp SA-T7 incorporates a Dac. and only has RCA outs.SA-T8 is fully Balanced with XLR's. The SA-T8 has better dimensionality, soundstage and Musical Flow. | |
| Vincent Audio tube preamp SA-T7 & SP-332 power amp @mjb87062017 You would need to find a 2nd hand SA-T8, but it would be worth it. Roll in better Tubes and will compete with some very highly regarded and priced Pre's. | |
| Vincent Audio tube preamp SA-T7 & SP-332 power amp I'll try to help, seeing you have no replies. I have heard the SA-T7. It's quite a good Pre. I have not heard the inbuilt Dac. IMO you are better off trying to find a SA-T8. Roll the Tubes and a Cap upgrade and it's one of the best Pre's available... | |
| Best integrated/power amplifier under $6000 Knowing your Speakers might help with recommendations. | |
| ***Is It Me Or Have Todays Modern Tubes Gotten REALLY REALLY Good*** Psvane's are excellent and EH are good. | |
| Who makes great active preamps ? Tube or solid state or hybrid. Thrax Audio Dionysis Pre. Sublime but big $$$.And +1 Vincent for the money. SA-T8 Tube (as long as you roll in better tubes) & SA-94 Solid State. | |
| System Audio Ranger Masters Hi mark93, I paid Au3k on Clearance and yes I still have them. |
