    Karan Acoustics MASTER COLLECTION LINEb

    The preamp is built on the dual mono principle and has received three completely independent power sources (for each channel and for control boards), as well as a solid battery of filter capacities. The volume control in the Karan lineB preamp is stepwise, using a set of relay-switched resistances. The controller is controlled by a microprocessor, which made it possible to equip the preamplifier with an original round remote control made of aluminum. The internal wiring is done with cables from Cardas Audio.
