The C 480 B system combines unparalleled performance with exceptional flexibility. Patented electronic circuitry coupled to a transformerless output stage assures completely linear transfer characteristics across the entire audio bandwidth, while achieving self-noise figures close to the theoretical minimum. This, in combination with a typical SPL handling capability of 140dB broadband means a dynamic range exceeding 125dB, making the system suitable for the most critical digital recording applications. Gold plated switch and connector contacts guarantee consistent performance. A specially designed output stage drives difficult loads (e.g. excessively long cables) with no signal degradation.
The C 480 B pre-amp offers additional sensitivity due to a new 48 volt only format. Two sets of switches offer the following features: Two step high pass filter, and two gain manipulation stages of either -10dB or +6dB.
