Commentary
A pre-main amplifier with newly developed audio elements mounted on the output stage.
The output stage is equipped with a newly developed audio element SAP (temperature compensated transistor) with built-in temperature detection and compensation circuits.
This solves the fluctuation of the operating point caused by the time loss when it is connected externally to the conventional power transistor, and achieves the dynamic characteristic that the operating point dynamically follows the strength of the music signal by temperature compensation in almost real time.
Since the distortion factor does not vary depending on the output, the bare characteristics at low to medium volume are stabilized.
The well-balanced layout of the transmission and amplification circuits reduces various adverse effects on sound quality, such as signal jumping in the circuits.
In order to realize purer music playback, we adopted Source Direct, which minimizes the signal transmission path.
It is equipped with 37 key unified remote control as standard for improved operability.
