Description

Concert Fidelity CF-080 LSX3 hybrid tube pre-amp. Considered one of the world's finest. The CF-080 LSX3 has three unbalanced line ins, one balanced line in and two unbalanced line outs. It uses two 12AU7 pre-amp tubes and a tube rectifier, all which can be "rolled" to the user's satisfaction. I bought it as a used item but completely gone through from Shinen Audio that has access to the Concert Fidelity engineering team. It includes a remote. Neat feature is the mute (on the unit, not the remote), which is not a hard mute, but decreases the volume incrementally from your listening decibels to 0 db. Think of it as a dimmer on a light switch. I have the factory shipping box, manual and remote. The pre-amp does not ship with tubes. Fantastic build quality from a top and highly respected Japanese builder.
