New Sebatron solid-state unit

[hognogger]

It's called Cygnus-2.

Looks interesting. I have a VMP2000, which I like, but would be good to have something cleaner as well.

Looks nice. It appears that Sebatron has entered the clean preamp stage. Pretty slick looking, nice metering, phase reversal, high pass filter, 70 db of gain. How much is this unit?

From a Seb Post at recording.org:

"It’s a two channel high impedance transformerless solid state preamp that runs on a single +60 Volt internal rail. It’s all discrete using low noise transistors.
There are no intergrated circuits or chips in the audio path.

Power supply is internal ( no wall wart ) .
There’s 65 to 70db of clean gain.
Compared to the vmp , which is of course a valve preamp , Cygnus is a lot more transparent but without being overly so. It exhibits soft clipping tendencies when driven and has an accurate frequency response without a hyped top end.
It’s a fast preamp without sounding brittle."

has a cool clip light too.what a neat idea
