Wall Audio's new Opus 100 SYM is mainly addressed to customers emphasizing on a symmetric liaison between pre- and power amplifier. High-class studio transformers enable the sending of a symmetric and perfectly balanced signal, assuring a non-dissipative transmission. It also comes with a RCA output for unbalanced connections.
Factory lead time is currently approx. 4-6 weeks.
Wall Audio is a company in Freiburg, in the south of Germany, making tube amps since more than 30 years and finally available in the US.
The Wall Audio Opus 100 Sym is a great sounding preamp. It delivers a full, rich, lush sound with deep and wide soundstage and great dynamics and speed. The Opus 100 Sym employs altogether 14 tubes. The transformer is externally housed to prevent electromagnetic field interference to the tubes, which is very smart design. Even the rectifier and power supply tubes are separated from the over-dimensioned, cast-in transformer.
Reviews of its older brother, the Opus 88:
Amre Ibrahim, Image Hifi (April 2015):
"...I don’t know of any other pre-amp in the price range under $6000 that has been produced with such high quality work, parts and careful attention to detail. The resulting sound proves that the designer is right. If you’re searching for an honest, affordable pre-amp, don’t have a huge fleet of components in your system, call vinyl your own and - if you value the sound of dynamics and neutrality, but still don’t want to give up a touch of tubes, then you should definitely put the Wall Audio Opus 88 on the shortlist of your candidates. If you don’t, you’re making a mistake..." Check out the entire review
Thomas Schmidt, LP-Magazin:
"...consistently build a tube preamp as it should be, superbly equipped and of course with a magnificent and glorious sound especially in the phono stage... Thank you for this tip!" Click here to read the entire review
