Remarks[edit]
- Current model of a series started in 1986(?) with the SAC Hedgehog PA 40. Other models were the SAC PA 40 MK2, SAC Hedgehog PA 50 and SAC Hedgehog PA 50 T.
The manufacturer offers an upgrade service ( 280 € ) in which sound-determining components are replaced by new ones (if necessary). In any case, new power supply electrolytic capacitors from Panasonic, lower inductance emitter resistors, fresh end transistors are used. Instead of Sanken 2SC2837 and 2SA1294 the same types from the Chinese-Indian company ISC are used. Since mid 2010 a new circuit with a very high quality National Audio IC is used in the input stage. Until now this was an Ic of the type AD 797. The previous hedgehogs can not be brought to this level by an upgrade! To this series also belongs the preamplifier "beta".
