Inspired by the vintage JBL SA600 and SA660 integrated amplifiers from the 1960’s and 1970’s, the new JBL SA750 features Class G amplification for sound performance and greater efficiency.

The JBL SA750 Integrated Amplifier features a retro-inspired milled aluminium face panel with volume, balance and input dials and hefty switches for power, mute, direct, MC/MM phono, and Dirac Live room calibration.

The face panel includes a 3.5mm Aux input and 3.5mm Headphones output, plus a 2-line orange display screen. The look is completed by classic teak-wood veneer side panels to match the new anniversary edition JBL L100 Classic 75 loudspeakers, which we featured yesterday.
