PRODUCTS : ELECTRONICS : Dual Mono VPS

 

 

The VPS was built around the strength of our long-standing VPL.
Equally dynamic and transparent, the VPS further brings out the best performance from the Art Audio amplifiers.

The VPS is a dual-mono design and sports updated transformers and tube power supplies.

The results are a natural, spacious midrange and fast and exciting presentation that breath a new life to your favorite music. A greater dynamics lets you enjoy your music even at a lower listening level.

The VPS is offered in two different configurations.

A remote version with a beautifully finished metal hand-held remote and a balance control version with a hand-built Goldpoint V-series 24-stepped dual attenuators to handle the music signals with the utmost care.

Additional inputs and tape monitor or balanced outputs on the remote control version VPS are available as an option to suit your needs.
