Description
Very very very rare and very very very hard to find Vendetta Research SCP-1 Gold MC cartridge pre-preamplifier by John Curl.
Comes with separate power supply unit.
Vendetta Research Symmetrical Cascode Pre-preamplifier represents John Curl¡¦s latest all-out effort to develop and effective bridge between the best moving coil cartridges and the highest quality preamplifier. The SCP-1 uses one of the most linear topologies ever used in a pre-preamplifier. It is a significant departure form John Curl¡¦s original designs with up to one hundred times less distortion than his previous efforts.
The Symmetrical Cascode Pre-preamplifier consists of a direct coupled push-pull, complementary FET cascode pair that is effectively a single stage of amplification. The highest quality components are used throughout, each channel is buffered with its own all FET regulator, and is servo-controlled to remove any capacitors in the audio signal path.
The input loading is continuously variable between 10 and 200 ohms. Although the pre-preamp is designed with no negative feedback, it can be strapped for a small amount of feedback for use with very low impedance loading of some moving coil cartridges. A John Curl developed the first successful low noise pre-preamplifier for Mark Levinson Audio Systems in 1973. Variations on that patented design are used in many pre-preamps today.
