DESCRIPTION

- Perfect tracking volume 128 step control system with unprecedented precision and dynamic range.
- Infinite resolution indirect signal path balance control.
- All-tube design operated conservatively for long life.
- Relay input switching eliminates switching distortion.
- Star grounding for low interference susceptibility and clean signal path.
- Zero feedback - no feedback loops in the audio circuitry.
- Super-low noise.
- High input signal capacity without overload; see technical specifications.
- Gold plated TIFF RCA and ground connectors.
- Hand-picked components for accurate response and consistent unit-to-unit quality.
- Automatic muting at startup and shutdown.
- 72, 000 F of power supply energy storage capacitance.
- 4 levels of high voltage regulation.
- Regulated soft-start DC filament supply.
- Regulated tube bias supply.
- Toroidal power transformer.
- Rugged 0.10"" thick aluminum chassis with 0.25"" thick heavily anodized faceplate.
- Reversing power line (AC) polarity switch for minimizing line-to-chassis reactive currents and noise pickup.
- Controlled warm-up of tube filaments and high voltage for extended tube life.
- Low plate operating currents for extended tube life and cool operation.
- Front panel indicators for power, filament voltage, and output/mute/monaural.
- Each unit is given an extensive burn-in, including rigorous bench and listening tests.
