With a simple flick of a switch, the POWER IN feature allows individual use of the two sections. At the heart of the preamplifier section is a further evolved AAVA type volume control, and the power amplifier block is configured with the latest instrumentation amplifier topology, enabling fully balanced signal transmission throughout. The MCS+ approach improves crucial performance parameters by employing multiple identical circuits in parallel, and current feedback provides optimum stability. As a result, the low impedance output stage achieves a damping factor of 500. MOS-FET switches are used in place of relays for speaker protection, helping to ensure superb electrical characteristics and improve long-term reliability. Power MOS-FET devices arranged in triple parallel push-pull pairs for each channel greatly enhance the ability of the amplifier to drive low-impedance loads.
