C1000 Solid State/Tube Preamplifier Features
TRI-AMPLIFICATION
All three balanced outputs carry the same signal and bypass switching when
the TRI-MODE is programmed. This allows tri-amplification of a speaker set,
while the unbalanced outputs will still switch to control a remote amplifier.
VRV (VARIABLE RATE VOLUME) DIGITALLY CONTROLLED ATTENUATOR
The output attenuator controls volume over 214 steps of .5dB each with accuracy
within .1dB. The volume versus rotation rate varies as preamplifier gain varies and attenuation changes occur at the zero crossings of the audio signal to prevent audible artifacts during adjustment.
ELECTROMAGNETIC SWITCHING
Signal routing is accomplished through digitally controlled electromagnetic
switching devices. Precision switch contacts, isolated from environmental
contamination inside inert gas-filled tubes, provide the most reliable, quietest
and lowest distortion switching possible.
PHONO SECTION FLEXIBILITY
Moving Magnet has adjustable capacitance from the remote to allow
flexibility in matching your favorite turntable. Moving Coil offers adjustable
resistance also from the remote control for the same flexibility.
