Commentary
A pre-main amplifier developed by examining the latest theory and method.
The main amplifier uses a 2-power supply system and all stages are directly connected without capacitor. The complimentary service stage uses a pure output system composed of PNP type power transistors to eliminate crossover distortion.
The first stage consists of two differential amplifier circuits.
The equalizer stage of the pre-amplifier section uses a 3-stage direct-coupled circuit, and employs a PNP-NPN-PNP transistor configuration with an advantageous power utilization factor. In addition, as a noise countermeasure, an excellent silicon transistor with ultra-low noise (2SA493) is mainly used throughout all stages of the pre-amplifier section.
In addition, tantalum type and Mylar type with low leakage current are used for the coupling capacitor between stages to suppress unpleasant shock noise when switching the switch.
A friction type double volume is used for the tone control. When turned normally, both the left and right are linked, but it can be adjusted separately.
The bending point frequency can be adjusted by 3 points for both high and low frequencies.
It is equipped with a low booster, low / high filter, and attenuator to enhance the low range.
Various controls and balance volumes are equipped with a Klix/Klukš top.
