Sprout was recently shown in prototype form at the Munich High End show, to overwhelmingly positive response from media, industry, and the public. It is a simple but high-quality hub of a home music system, and contains a 50 watt/channel integrated amplifier, a phono preamplifier, 24/96 asynchronous DAC, headphone amp and a Bluetooth receiver. It can play music directly from a turntable, any digital input, and wirelessly from a smartphone.

PS Audio’s Sales Director Scott McGowan stated, “Most people of my generation – in their 20’s and 30’s – have grown up with earbuds and cheap plastic home-theater systems, and have no idea how great music at home can sound. This product is our first step in growing awareness of awesome home audio – so we think Sprout is an appropriate name. We expect big things from this little guy.”

Built to the usual PS Audio standards of quality, utilizing aircraft-grade aluminum, steel and walnut, Sprout will offer PS’ legendary concert-hall sound, reliability and customer support to a whole new audience.

Paul and Scott McGowan“We’re excited to be able to bring the experience of great sound to a new generation,” Founder and CEO of PS Audio Paul McGowan explained.”The really cool think about Sprout is that it plays music the way people listen today – from their phones, from turntables, from their computers – and it does it simply. Gamers and movie-viewers will have more-immersive experience, too. Sprout is a great product, and we’re proud to put the PS Audio name on it.”

Backers of the campaign will have the opportunity to sample Sprout for as little as $399 before it begins shipping in 2014’s third quarter to specialists audio retailers and online resellers, where it will sell for an MSRP of $799.99. The campaign can be seen here, and will run for 30 days.

With 25 days left, the campaign has raised $173,515 from 403 backers. It is set to close on July 16th.
