Overview and specifications
For all who are looking for a compact system that makes fascinating music and that is easy to handle, there is no alternative to the SAM V2, even for ourselves. The new SAM version 2.0 is the only main amplifier we produce.
The SAM V2 combines tonal transparency with fine sovereignty and solid power. Its outstanding sound qualities play on a level that even much more expensive combinations of pre and poweramplifiers cannot beat. The technical properties express in phenomenal measurements and, of course, in overwhelming sound. It offers a wide range of connections, intelligent handling concepts and versatile exten- sion capabilities and can be completely remote-controlled. A microprocessor observes and controls all functions and shows information on a comfortable vacuum-fluorescence display. All that glitters is gold: The inputs are fitted with gold-plated, Teflon-insulated sockets. Switching is done by precision relays with gold-plated contacts, and the loudspeakers are connected to gold-plated terminals. With its exclusive materials and the outstanding finish the SAM V2 is an elegant masterpiece for eyes and ears. A sensual pleasure. Look forward to the SAM V2.
A microprocessor controls all functions and informs about the system state via a big display. The processor watches temperature, overload, DC and HF. Inputs, headphone, loudspeakers and preamplifier output are separately switchable. All inputs can be named via menus. A wrong mains phase is detected and displayed. All functions can be controlled remotely. Gold-plated, Teflon insulated input sockets. Switching via gold-coated precision relays. Level adjustment via ALPS motor-driven potentiometer. The input stage contains extre- mely low-noise monolithic double difference amplifiers. Decoupling is done through several followers; therefore nearly infinite input impedance and constant input capacity are attained. A fast correction stage locally eliminates distortion. The power stage has two power MOSFETs per channel. The outputs have gold-plated loudspeaker terminals. There are 700 VA toroid core transformers with separate windings for input and power stages. The two special audio capacitors each have 22,000 uF. There are discrete and fast voltage regulators and a separated power supply for the control unit. SMD miniature technology is implemented for the best high frequency properties and shortest signal paths. The SAM V2 can be equipped with the intelligent remote commander SRC-7000 and a phono module for MM and MC systems
