TLA C-1 Dual Valve Pre Amp - Compressor This is a brilliant Pre-Amp / Compressor from TLA. TL Audio's Original Classic Series C-1 is a Dual Channel Preamplifier and Compressor. The C-1 is Valve Tube based, its components are all Analogue and the C-1 is Rack Mountable, taking up two spaces in a traditional rack casing. Description The C-1 features a Low Noise Solid State Preamp followed by two Valve Stages per Channel. The valves are General Electric ECC83/12AX7A types. The first Valve Stage acts as a Voltage Amplifier, with the Second Stage forming part of the Gain Control Element. The Gain Control is performed by a unique Transconductance Stage which avoids the use of VCAs - thus improving Transparency and minimizing Distortion, which is virtually constant at a low 0.05% over the full bandwidth. The Frequency Response of the C-1 is virtually flat between 20Hz and 40kHz, and measured between -3dB points, the C-1's bandwidth is a staggering 5Hz to 70kHz!
