Pre Amplifier

CSCP-C10L

The limited edition CSCP-C10 has two significant features same as CSCP-275L

power amplifier. Firstly, it is composed with a lot of New Old Stock components which

was manufactured in the 1960's for reproducing pure analogue sound. In order to

avoid the degradation of sound quality, none of semiconductor devices were used on

a signal path. Diode for rectifying AC current is only semiconductor device used in this

preamplifier. Secondly, the CSCP-C10 preamplifier has a very unique and special

cosmetic design. It has circuit boards to mount the passive devices from top while

conventional tube amplifier has components mounted underneath the chassis. The

tubes are also mounted on the top of chassis. However, differently from conventional

tube amplifiers, the top cover of this CSCP-C10 is made of glass, which enables to

look inside of the circuit board from top of the amplifier (Design patent 30-0710629). In

addition to above features, this preamplifier uses point-to-point wiring method. Most of

all tube amplifiers recently made use printed circuit board for reducing labor cost. As a

result, it becomes very difficult to replace faulty components for repairing and the

printed circuit board may be damaged by poor repair. Point-to-point wiring removes that

kind of worry. The limited edition CSCP-C10 tube preamplifier is designed to be a reference amplifier

for the use of dedicated audiophiles. It has 3 line inputs and 1 phono input. The phono

input has sensitivity of 2mV to support MM cartridge. It has 1 pair of balance output terminals and 1 pair of XLR balance terminals. In order to support various

characteristics of loudspeakers, tone control circuit is provided, which can be bypassed when not in use.
