pre-amplifier The Brinkmann Audio Calvin Preamplifier
is designed to give the experienced music lover control over selection
of whatever digital or analog music sources with extremely short
signal paths and shielded from vibration.
Symmetrical circuit topology. Available as a line stage or as
a full functioning preamplifier with use adjustable built in MM
and MC phono stage. Five line inputs (two are used with the phono
stage), a tape monitor circuit, and two outputs all single ended
operation with RCA type plugs with a separate free standing power
supply, left and right balance control, infra-red remote control
that adjusts for volume and mute.
As with all Brinkmann Audio components the top plate is made
from tempered glass allowing the owner a view to the internal
beauty of the pre-amplifier and a one inch thick granite platform
sized to the chassis that is designed to allow protection from
external vibration and assists in heat dissipation.
Transient response, speed, and dynamics, transparency and neutrality,
and an elevated level of detail retrieval and resolution combine
to bring the Calvin to a performance level significantly higher
than was thought possible - all at an affordable cost.
