VINNIE ROSSI BRAMA COLLECTION ELECTRONICS LAUNCHED

Vinnie Rossi has always been driven by a passion for engineering two-channel audio components marked by innovative design.

After seventeen years of honing his craft with a series of commercially successful and acclaimed products, Vinnie Rossi is proud to introduce the Vinnie Rossi Brama Collection. In Italian, the word “Brama” means a strong craving or desire.

After a 2-year research and development process, Rossi states “Brama opens a new chapter for our brand and demonstrates to the world our strong commitment to designing and manufacturing innovative, reference-grade audio components at the highest level.”

For the Brama Collection of integrated Amplifier, Preamplifier, and Stereo Power Amplifier,  Rossi teamed with Montreal-based industrial designer Olivier Raymond (Porsche Design, Mercedes-Benz) to achieve what Raymond describes as “a timeless design statement that is positively unadorned and sheltered from passing trends – redefining indulgence in the most elegant and enduring fashion.”

VINNIE ROSSI BRAMA COLLECTION FEATURES

The Vinnie Rossi Brama Collection features independent, Class A, 300B directly-heated triode and solid-state linestage sections, with the ability to switch between them via a press of a button on the Brama Remote. 350Wrms per channel of power into 4-ohm  for the Brama Integrated Amplifier and 500Wrms per channel into 4-ohm for Brama Stereo Power Amplifier. A 100-step precision resistor ladder volume control, fully balanced input/outputs, home-theatre bypass, as well as memory inputs that save independent settings for each input, including Gain, Triode %, Balance, Phase, and Stereo/Mono listening mode.

Vinnie Rossi Brama Collection Preamplifier

The custom-designed 1750VA, shielded power supply transformer has dual secondary windings to feed independent, dual-mono linear power supply PCBs for both the preamplifier and power amplifier sections. Ultrafast soft recovery diodes, massive filter capacitors, and super-regulated outputs deliver dynamics with very low noise.

Protection against over-voltage, under-voltage, over-temperature, and over-current is present on all outputs. Diagnostics are sent to the Brama Remote for easy viewing.

The chassis is machined from solid aluminium-6063R billet that is finely bead-blasted, anodized.

TOTAL CONTROL

As well as the Swiss-made, precision-stepped rotary switches that give manual control an incredibly satisfying feel. There is the new Brama Remote control, which offers an intuitive menu structure, high-resolution display with adjustable backlighting, Bluetooth communication, ambient light sensing, accelerometer, USB-C connectivity for battery charging and firmware updates, and a body machined from a solid block of aluminium.

There are bespoke analogue gauges with precision air core movements, machined aluminium hands, and adjustable backlighting. Sapphire glass and highly-polished stainless steel bezels seamlessly integrate the gauges to the front panel.
