General: High-end balanced tube preamplifier with phono.

Technology: The Audio Research SP-20 is a very high-quality, fully balanced tube preamplifier. The Audio Research SP-20 has many inputs and outputs. No fewer than 5 RCA inputs plus an excellent Phono input and 2 XLR inputs, and 2 XLR and 2 RCA outputs are available. This allows you to connect a large number of devices to the Audio Research SP-20. Even a high-quality headphone connection is included. Amplification is provided by four 6H30 tubes. These last a very long time and are relatively affordable to purchase new and easy to replace. The Audio Research SP-20 is operated via a beautiful touchscreen, which reduces the number of buttons on the front panel to a minimum.
