Commentary
A preamplifier that controls the signal sent to the active speakers.
The output jacks are balanced, unbalanced, and Rec out.
Two input terminals are installed : Phono MM/MC, CD, Tape and Aux.
The inside is roughly divided into three blocks. The first block equipped with a driving board houses control circuits, volume control, rumble filter, monitor circuits, etc.
The center block houses the output circuit, toroidal transformer, and stabilized power supply circuit, while the rear block is equipped with I/O modules and AC cables.
Each of the three blocks is completely shielded to block external magnetic field effects and eliminate mutual interference.
