Description Accuphase C-2900 The preamplifier’s volume control is a vital component for maintaining vibrancy in the sound source. Since its founding, Accuphase has spent 50 years in pursuit of creating the ideal volume control circuitry. The C-2900’s Balanced AAVA system was designed using Accuphase’s original AAVA volume control circuits to significantly improve sonic performance. The faithful reproduction of delicate musical performances by the C-2900 makes it the perfect preamplifier for passionate audiophiles. Accuphase C-2900 specifications: Balanced AAVA volume control Logic-controlled relays for signal switching assure high sound quality and long-term reliability Printed circuit boards for signal transmission use glass cloth fluorocarbon resin with low dielectric constant and minimum loss along with gold-plating on copper foil surfaces Power supply circuits with separate toroidal transformers and filtering capacitors (10,000 μF × 4 pcs) for the left and right Newly developed volume sensor construction for a quiet and smooth operation feel Versatile arrangement of inputs and outputs (five line level inputs, two balanced inputs, two line level outputs, and two balanced outputs) Line level input and output connectors for a recorder Line level and balanced EXT PRE inputs for connection of an external preamplifier Individual phase setting for each input Switchable overall gain (12 dB / 18 dB / 24 dB) Left / right balance control through Balanced AAVA Stereo signal can be switched to monophonic operation Volume attenuator to instantly reduce sound to as low as –20 dB Loudness compensator for correcting the perceived spectral balance Informative and easy to read input and volume level display with on / off switching Discretely configured, high-quality headphone amplifier with parallel push/pull output stages Subsonic filter that cuts off ultra-low frequency noise from record warping Natural grain wood case with a mirror finish crafted by artisans using carefully selected virgin wood High-carbon cast iron insulator feet with superior damping characteristics Adding the AD-2900 to the C-2900 allows you to play analog discs.
