The SA-76A-5 was developed to make the Bluestripe 1176 sound available in the popular 500 series format. It allows engineers to build high-channel-count drum compression rigs or add 1176 character to lunchbox setups without sacrificing rack space.

2018
The Stam Audio SA-76A+ is the most accurate replica of the vintage UREI 1176 Revision A on the market. Features a fully discrete signal path with custom Sowter transformers and a unique built-in tube output stage with ECC88 valve and Carnhill output transformer — giving users essentially 3 compressors in 1: classic 1176 Rev A, tube 1176 Rev A, and a hybrid blend. The Sowter 1260 input transformer is an identical replica of the original UTC O-12, and the custom Sowter output matches the original 5002. Includes unity gain dry/wet blend, Super Slow Attack Mod (10ms for kicks and bass), Vishay capacitors, and matched transistors. Hand made in Chile.
