A30pro omits pre-amp functionality. Reason is that A30pro has balanced input, but doesn't have balanced output. It requires extra circuits to have balanced out preamp. I squeezed a pair of 6.35mm TRS balanced output on the back to have the balanced out.(but not extra preamp circuit) Some people also have requested that bypass function on some model. A30pro is the perfect place to do it.Gah! I haven't finished waitting for the A50s yet and now there's another option to consider! Actually, if the A30 Pro lacks pre-amp functionality, then I can discount that option.
