Why a name like Vincent?

"Shengya as elegant as paintings by Vincent van Gogh" [url]http://www.cattylink.com/page235a.htm

From Wikipedia

Vincent Willem van Gogh (UK play /ˌvæn ˈɡɒx/, US /ˌvæn ˈɡoʊ/;[note 1] Dutch: [vɑn ˈɣɔχ] ( listen); March 30, 1853 – July 29, 1890) was a Dutch post-Impressionist painter whose work had a far-reaching influence on 20th century art as a result of its vivid colors and emotional impact[/wuote]

What exactly does this mean "Serious upgraded model to the famous SA-T1"?

Does that mean it has now been upgraded now to be on par with the SA-T1 after firstly having been produced with cheaper parts? Or that its performance now surpassed the SA-T1?


Also...the literature that came with the SA-T1 states that its only tube and not hybrid, and the matching mono amps are tube/transistors making it a hybrid. It seems the SHENGYA version of the SA-T1 is a hybrid.
