C800 Preamplifier

Two chassis designs

C800 stereo preamplifier uses advanced circuitry and high-quality components to deliver outstanding music reproduction for your favorite tunes. It features an external power supply in a separate chassis to avoid unwanted electromagnetic interference to the line platform.

Like our other products, the C800 is designed and built to deliver a lifetime of musical enjoyment. The circuit components used in the C800 are all carefully selected and hand-soldered onto military-grade epoxy circuit boards. Even the DC power cables used to connect the line stage and the power supply are handcrafted by our engineers to meet our standards
