The New SC12R Preamplifier -simply uncompromising

SC12R TRIODE PREAMPLIFIER

All components which are critical for the end result, are manufactured especially for this preamplifier. For example our custom in-house developed 34 Steps Autoformer which can adjust the volume levels ultra-finely to illustrate the level of quality with zero loss.

People often forget how much influence the driver stage has, which is why we use the legendary Western Electric 396A in the first stage, which not only provides amplification but also an incomparable flavour...an incomparable sound.

 

In all our products we are very passionate regarding the use of directly heated triodes (DHT) as our hallmark, without them we believe ultimate expression of music reproduction would not be possible.

Custom designed transformers

SC12R is made with 4 in-house custom-made state of the art E-Core and M-Core, power, ouput and signal transformers, Sliver internal wire and true point to point (PTP) wiring. Not less important is the choice of rectifier and DHT Triodes, where we use best possible current production tubes TA 274b which by their performance are the closest to legendary Western Electric 274b.

Swiss attention to detail

The sum of clever engineering, selection of best components and meticulous Swiss attention to details gives us a pre-amplifier which meets all the wishes and expectations of even the most critical audiophiles with a potent source. We strongly believe that we managed to create a one-of-a-kind preamplifier.
