Vinnie Rossi Brama Preamplifier
The heart of your system. The soul of your music.
In any exceptional audio system, the preamplifier doesn’t just pass the signal; it defines it. It sets the tone, shapes the silence between the notes, and lets the music speak freely.
The Brama Preamplifier is built on this belief. At its heart lies a unique 300B directly heated triode linestage using Western Electric’s iconic WE300B tubes, chosen for their unmatched ability to preserve tonal integrity and reveal the soul of your source components.
What truly sets Brama apart is its intention. Every detail, from the controls to the pure signal path, is designed to deepen your connection to the music.
Pure analog emotion
Every design decision begins with one clear goal: emotional connection.
The front panel of the Brama Preamplifier is intentionally free of screens and distractions, favoring the gentle glow of a custom analog gauge and the tactile precision of Swiss rotary switches.
Brama’s timeless design invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and truly feel the music.
Control in its purest form
Milled from a solid block of aluminum and crowned with sapphire glass over its highresolution display, the Brama Remote is intuitive, tactile, and unmistakably refined. Bluetooth connectivity keeps you effortlessly in control without pulling you out of the moment.
Powering your passion
Brama’s custom power supply was designed to disappear. With ultra-low-noise, superregulated linear outputs and lightning-fast transient response, it delivers pure, uncolored energy against an utterly silent background.
Encased in its own grounded chamber, it preserves every ounce of musical nuance, free from interference and compromise.
Simplicity - The ultimate sophistication
Elegance isn’t added, it’s revealed. Machined from a single block of aluminum, Brama’s chassis provides complete EMI shielding, exceptional resonance control, and a quiet confidence that reflects its purpose.
Its timeless form disappears, both visually and sonically, so nothing stands between you and the music.
