Sugden Sapphire DAP-800 Pre Amplifier

The Sugden Sapphire DAP-800 Pre Amplifier is available for demonstration in our Hull store

Sugden have released the Sugden Sapphire DAP-800 Pre Amplifier, a digital Pre Amplifier and DAC. The Sugden Sapphire DAP-800 Pre Amplifier utilieses the Sugden VCV circuit, the CVC circuit has been designed to have a high impedance input section, current gain stage (without attenuation problems) which drives a folded cascode stage into a Class ‘A’ output stage. The folded cascode circuit facilitates a wide bandwidth with maximum dynamics and low capacitive connectivity.

The DAC section of the Sugden Sapphire DAP-800 Pre Amplifier is their as an interface for digital products including inputs for USB, Optical and coaxial S/PDIF signals. The Sugden Sapphire DAP-800 Pre Amplifier's DAC set up has been tested and tuned through hours of auditioning to give you the dynamic, tonal balance, with the voice and emotion that you've come to expect from Sugden.
