The SC1…completely legal happiness drug.
Our new SC1 is a real five ★★★★★ transformer coupled Reference preamplifier. The SC1 is completely hand wired (point to point) and all components were newly developed especially for the SC1.
For example; the new line output transformer with over 350 henrys is unique on the market!
Very good audio line out transformers transmit up to 95% of the original power of a triode; in watts!
Transformer coupling advantages however depend on the quality of the line out transformer and of course on the choice of tubes, like the legendary Directly Heated Triode 300b or 801a which we install in SC1.
As transformers are the essential part in each device and depending on their quality final result depend, we at Tobian Soundsystems do not want to leave anything to chance, so we decided to manufacture transformers ourselves.
After many hours spend on research and development and numerous comparisons and tests, we decided to use the best core material "M-core and E-core super-Permalloy". The result is an unprecedented audio line out transformer with a very wide and flexible frequency response ranging from 10Hz to 30kHz square wave.
This low-distortion and ultra-musical line out output transformer is the ideal partner for our new SC1 and has helped us to bring to life this exceptional preamplifier.
