Specifications

The C 480 B is part of a system designed specifically for
excellent audio quality and maximum flexibility. Its elec-
tronic 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
140 dB broadband means a dynamic range exceeding
125 dB, making the system suitable for the most critical
digital recording applications. Gold plated switch and con-
nector contacts guarantee consistent performance.
A specially designed output stage drives difficult loads
(e.g. excessively long cables) with no signal degradation.
Two sets of switches offer a two-step highpass filter and
two gain manipulation stages of either –10 dB or +6 dB.
