HP700 - sophisticated valve technology combined with intelligent modularity make this pre-amp future-proof. A valve pre-amp boasting innovative precision technology and a modular concept that allows the listener the freedom to build a system to cater for individual music tastes. Instead of being bound by the fixed audio and technical parameters of the equipment, listeners can adapt the technology of the HP700 to their own requirements and preferences. The result is THE sound - the optimal sound experience for the individual high-end audio system and the individual listener. THE NEXT STEP - A major step toward the ideal of all music lovers.
» The XLR output is transformer balanced and galvanically isolated.
» Soft start for heating, power supply and signal output; providing maximum tube life and trouble-free switching on and off.
» The gain of the Line-stage can be switched in three levels.
» External power supply with multiple shielded power transformer and integrated mains filter.
