Scheherazade line tube preamplifier

Scheherazade Tubes Line Preamplifier

Scheherazade is Audio Experience Level 4 line preamp.

A New Start.
It is a full new design preamplifier . The input stage use JJ E88CC gold pin tube, it provide high input impedance ( Balanced input 950k ohm, RCA input 475k ohm ) to low output impedance and true balanced input. The input stage driver the low impedance volume control , the volume go to line output amplifier stage. The line output amplifier stage use NOS Siemens EC8010 gold pin tube driver the Hashimoto line output transformer construct Low output impedance ,Class A and Not NFB for each channel.

The Scheherazade 's application of a highly efficient solid-state voltage regulator with Thomson-CSF 6X4 Tube for current regulator in the HVB+ power supply . Also it use the external power supply get highest S/N.
