The SA-2A+ is the finest replica of the vintage 1968 Teletronix LA-2A available today. The vintage LA-2A is the most sought after vocal and bass compressor in the world that has been used on thousands of hit songs.
Thanks to Kenetek’s painstaking replica of the original T4B (the heart and soul of this circuit) and custom US made HA-100X and A-24 style transformers the SA-2A recreates every drop of character of the original UREI LA-2A at a fraction of the price.
We have gone to great lengths to faithfully reproduce the compression characteristics and tonality of the original. This is the best LA-2A recreation on the market at any price point.
The SA-2A+ features a Dry-Wet blend control, the original Teletronix VU meter, a 3U faceplate and new transformers that precisely match the ratios and frequency response of the original UTC and premium capacitors
The NOS American and European tubes used in the SA-2A+ surpass the audio quality of any current production tube and are available per request.
Most importantly, the SA-2A+ uses a Kenetek T4B optical attenuator which is the single most important component in the LA-2A/3A family. Handmade and tested by Bill Jones in Kentucky the Kenetek T4B is the closest T4B replica available today to the original UREI T4B.
We have made no compromise in parts which ensures you get the best sounding compression possible. All our units are handmade and calibrated in our workshop in Chile where they get a full health check twice and burn for 48 hours.
While plugins have come a long way and are incredibly useful, there’s a reason the top engineers still have analog gear in their racks.
Stunning on vocals. Amazing on bass. In fact, most things will sound better by just running them through the SA-2A circuitry without even compressing!
Stam Audio Engineering products are about sound quality first and foremost. Every component of every unit is premium quality and carefully selected to ensure our units match or even surpass the quality of high-end boutique gear.
