Hi-Fi range
Nagra's range of Hi-Fi equipment expands each year. It now includes all the key components needed by audiophiles to build a sound system of exceptional quality. This includes both transistor and tube amplifiers. There has been renewed interest in vacuum tube technology over the last ten years. Nagra's tube-based devices are the result of state-of-the-art engineering that has put these devices at the forefront of today's technology and further stretched the boundaries of musical performance.
Nagra's Hi-Fi range includes:
- Nagra CDC, CDP and CDT CD players
- Nagra PL-L and PL-P tube preamplifiers
- Nagra VPS (tube) and BPS
- (transistor) phono preamplifiers
- Nagra VPA monoblock tube amplifiers
- Nagra PMA (mono) and PSA (stereo) transistor amplifiers
- Nagra MSA compact transistor stereo power amplifier
Launch of the Nagra BPS
Following the introduction of the tube version, VPS, in 2008, the Nagra BPS transistor phono pre-amplifier was successfully launched in 2009. This battery-powered device is extremely compact, and its simplified features make it both attractive and more affordable.
End of the development phase for the Nagra MSA
The new transistor amplifier, Nagra MSA, comes in a case similar, in look and size, to that of our pre-amplifiers. This compact device provides a comfortable 60 Watts rms per channel.
The Nagra MSA includes a number of innovative solutions for its power supply and power output stages, which enable it to perform perfectly even when it is used with speakers that are considered as difficult to drive. In line with the Nagra tradition, the MSA delivers neutral and transparent sound, of extremely high quality.
Unveiling of the 300B tube amplifier
At the 2010 international Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, USA ., Nagra unveiled the prototype for an integrated stereo amplifier based on 300B tubes. Invented at the beginning of the 20th century, the 300B is one of the oldest and most reputable tube types ever developed. Nagra's prototype pays homage to this legendary tube by naming its new amplifier after the tube. The compact 300B tube amplifier presented by Nagra delivers 20 Watts per channel. It includes all the features required for easy handling. The prototype sparked great interest among visitors to the show and generated positive newsflow in trade publications. The launch is scheduled for the end of 2010 or early 2011.
