Limited Edition
Celebrating Audionet’s legendary integrated amp’s 20 years anniversary we present the best SAM ever: the strictly limited SPECIAL EDITION SAM 20 SE (20th Anniversary).
An improved version of the classic  SAM who got the Class A Stereophile distinction for many years!

Description

A milestone in German amplifier construction:

New MOSFET power transistors with extremely low series resistance for a higher and more detailed fidelity in transient response (as used in the new worldwide benchmark WATT).
Extremely potent and acutely fast power supply, guaranteed by an encapsulated and cast-in 700 VA toroid transformer and new extremely low impedance and exceedingly fast audio-grade main capacitors with a 25% higher capacitance of 15,000 μF instead of 12,000 μF as before (total sum of 120,000 μF instead of 96,000 μF).

Further optimized inner wiring, all signal cables are made of silver and gold providing highest resolution and finest details.

New high grade mica capacitors in all places with crucial affect on sound. Their natural materials ensure a unique neutrality of sound.

Engraved front panel and re-designed back panel.

Dedicated SAM 20 SE Audionet metal remote control.

Inbuilt Phono card with the following improvements:

New integrated Op Amps of highest grade with extremely low-noise and fast FET inputs.
Optimized mica capacitors throughout. Their natural materials ensure a unique neutrality of sound.
