Proac
Response D40R Floorstanding speaker (has arrived!)
The Response D38 has successfully been in production
for nearly 8 years, but with new cone technology now
available to ProAc, the decision was made to upgrade
this model and hence the new Response D40R was born.
We now produce our own drive unit cones and, in particular,
the carbon fibre cones utilised in the bass drivers
of our Carbon Pro series of ultimate loudspeakers. These
drivers produce the incredibly tuneful and powerful
bass qualities associated with the CP6 and CP8 and the
special carbon fibre technology has been further developed
in order to produce a cone that will effectively cover
both the bass and also the midrange frequencies of the
D40.
The new D40R now utilises two 6.5 carbon fibre
full range units achieving a powerful and extended bass
response. The new equalised vent was designed, using
two billet aluminium rods between the cabinet and plinth
which together with the drive unit frames are shaped
and coated in a non-resonant material.
Nominal Impedance: 4 ohms
Recommended Amplifiers: 10 to 250 Watts
Frequency Response: 20hz to 30Khz
Sensitivity: 90 dB linear for 1 watt at 1 metre

VTL
TL5.5 Series II Line Preamp
The
fundamental qualities that made the original TL-5.5
specialits all-tube design, the optional retrofittable
phono stage, and its superb sonic characteristicsare
unchanged. What's new is the application of advanced
audio technology sourced from VTL's TL-7.5 Reference
and TL-6.5 Signature preamplifiers. This technology
uses a simple circuit topology with low negative feedback
and a high current/low impedance output stage in a low-noise
microprocessor-based design. Top quality parts, fully
balanced operation, and precision-regulated and shielded
power supplies yield a full yet neutral sound with high
resolution, transparency, speed and powerful dynamics.
Much
of the engineering prowess inherent in these world-class
preamps has been transferred to the new TL5.5. New fully
regulated power supplies are similar to those of its
bigger siblings and the unit is now fully balanced,
for inputs as well as outputs. Similarly, VTL's latest
thinking from our new and acclaimed TP-6.5 Signature
phono stage is now applied to the optional MC phono
stage, which can be easily retrofitted internally. It
offers 68dB of gain and a balanced output, with a JFET/12AU7
high current MC stage (or high-grade stepup transformer),
split-pole passive RIAA stage with a dual 12AX7 MM stage
for maximum headroom voltage swing. Triple-precision
power supply regulation and full gain and load setting
with RIAA enhanced and rumble cut functions translate
to a clean and quiet yet dynamic sound that brings vinyl
to life!

to avoid the compromises, phase shift and nonlinearities
inherent in ICs.
Controls
are practical and convenient: source switching, tape
monitoring, mute, balance and volume. The BP-6 features
four high level inputs. Output is provided by two pair
of single-ended RCA outputs. A headphone output on the
front panel allows for monitoring and private listening.
A motor driven volume up/down hand held remote control
is also available as an option if required. No internal
wiring is designed into Brystons preamp circuitry.
Components plug directly into boards, eliminating variations
in signal travel and wire interaction. Volume controls
are laser trimmed to within 1/4 dB accuracy for a firm
image balance between the left and right channels. Low
output impedance and high current availability allow
you to run long cables between the preamp and power
amp without any loss of frequency response, so you can
position your amp as close to your speakers as possible.
Available
with an optional internal MM Phono Stage (BP-6P) input
or Digital (DAC) input BP-6 DA
Available in Silver or Black with 17 or 19 inch faceplate

Bryston
3B SST2
The
3B SST2 stereo amplifier, at 150 Watts per channel at
8 ohms, provides all the sonic virtues and the same
high value as our more powerful 4B SST2 but in a package
which is both compact and less costly. Historically,
the 3B has found favor in a wide range of audio/video
systems which call for medium to high amounts of power
but wish to avoid sacrificing sonic accuracy and long-term
reliability.

Wright KWA 150 Amplifier - New Arrival!
The
KWA 150 provides the strengths of both tube and solid
state products: 3-D sound-staging, holographic imaging,
and a beautiful midrange of tubes, combined with sparkling
highs, low distortion, bass resolution, and control
of solid state.
The
heart of the KWA 150 Amplifier is a single voltage gain
stage called the "Solid State Music Stage."
The circuit was developed by Alan Kimmel, creator of
the exceptional vacuum tube "Mu" stage.
Features
include: high-low bias switch, stereo/bridge-mono switch
and true balanced floating inputs, accepting balanced
and unbalanced inputs. The design incorporates a regulated
power supply for the input stage, Cardas' best connectors
and oversized heat sinks. The first 50 watts operate
in pure Class A.
The
KWA 150 uses no global feedback, is direct-coupled,
fully differential, dual-mono, bridgeable, and designed
and built in the USA.
Retails
$6600.
Available
in Black or Silver!
