SABA HiFi-350 (1981)

 

The result of state-of-the-art technology: the SABA HiFi Series 350. Introduced in 1981 it promised a new benchmark in HiFi technology – inside and out. At just 35 cm wide, the four components deliver precision performance, perfectly matched to each other. Its dimensions (smaller) and qualities (better) were made possible by a new technology: The HIGH-SPEED-CONTROL B power amplifier circuit.

The technology of the individual components:

Integrated Amplifier MI 350: 2 x 50 W music power (2 x 35 W RMS). Output power readable via a five-LED chain. Input for turntables with moving magnet or moving coil cartridges.
