Key Features

  •  4 inputs for line level sources are available

  • Tape loop output and monitoring input

  • Line out for connecting to external headphone amp

  • G=1 (Unity gain) input to integrate with A/V systems

  • A high quality ALPS volume control is used, with paralleled gangs for long life, quiet operation. Motorised of course, for operation from the remote control.

  • Soft Mute provides a ramp-down and ramp up without annoying clicks.

  • Quiet Mute (music continues at low level) or Silent Mute programmable options

  • Heavy machined aluminium panels of varying thicknesses clamped together provide a strong self-damping enclosure, preventing sound pressure and vibration from disturbing the musical transparency of the pre-amp.

  • High quality machined RCA connectors are used to provide low resistance, trouble-free cable termination for many years to come.

  • Independent supply feeds for the output buffers, plus our low-feedback analogue regulation circuits for the best possible sound quality.
