This unusual but effective design allows the audio section to be completely separated from the control and power section, delivering the purest sound reproduction possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside each the C12000C Controller and C12000ST Preamplifier, the left and right channels are electrically and mechanically isolated from each other to allow for true dual mono operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes 12 analog inputs: six balanced, four unbalanced, and two unbalanced phono inputs. The phono inputs are no longer set up as dedicated for Moving Coil or Moving Magnet cartridges; instead, both are configurable as either Moving Coil or Moving Magnet with adjustable Capacitance and Resistance Loading, along with adjustable Gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffers both vacuum tube and solid-state output. Six vacuum tubes power the high-level preamplifier section with two 12AT7 tubes and one 12AX7A tube assigned to each the left and right channel. Solid-state output is via a discrete balanced op-amp. The phono stage utilizes four 12AX7A vacuum tubes, with two tubes used per channel in a fully balanced configuration that incorporates RIAA equalization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour total outputs: one balanced vacuum tube; one balanced solid-state; one fixed unbalanced; and one programmable unbalanced (can be either vacuum tube or solid-state).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther features: High Drive headphone amplifier that has plenty of power and flexibility to drive a wide range of headphones. Power Control can automatically turn other connected McIntosh components on and off. Data Ports can send remote control commands to connected sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"McIntosh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46683621589303,"sku":"177426","price":9500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/2860\/9079\/files\/177426_WWS1.jpg?v=1774520841","url":"https:\/\/www.worldwidestereo.com\/products\/mcintosh-c12000st-preamplifier-module","provider":"World Wide Stereo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
