Luxman C-1000
06.10.2012
A real beauty, the Luxman C-1000.
Second component launched for tha Luxman 50th anniversary, along with the M-6000.
The phono input has two cascoded pairs of transistors in the differential comparator stage with another cascoded pair following the first 2 pairs as main section plus a Class-A push-pull output stage to make up a unique ideal discrete Op amp. High overload capability and four power-supplies.
The phono EQ section itself is an one-stage differential DC amplification with cascode amplifier.
The flat amp also is a cascoded DC circuit all emitter follower buffer amplifiers constant current circuitry.
The NF type tone controls use an emitter-follower made of two transistors where one is used for emitter-follower while the other for the constant current purpose.
Transistors are all encapsuled in steel cases for absolute resistance to moisture and humidity.
The attenuator is a thick film on ceramics switched attenuator.
The Touch Mute function mutes the output by 16dB at the touch of the related button and cancelled when touching the attenuator.
Added to the C-1000 are one L/R speaker terminal (from the power-amp) and two L/R speaker terminals (to speakers) for switching from the front panel speakers while having the headphones\\\' output operational and receiving the different signals back.
Phono 1 has a 30k...100kOhm input impedance pot next to the Phono 1&2 -5...+5dB input sensitivity.
The Aux 1 and tuner inputs also have (back) pots for input level.
