PRODUCTS : ELECTRONICS : Alana
Alana is an all tube line stage that recreates superior dynamics and greater resolution resulting in the most natural sounding pre amplifier available.
An optional phono section uses two 6N1P tubes, selectable loading, selectable Lundahlâ„¢ MC step-up transformer and is based on the Art Audio Vinyl Reference phono stage.
- Optional high quality remote volume control circuit. It incorporates a microprocessor controlled series/shunt attenuation circuit. This circuit provides 84 dB of attenuation in 1 dB steps with independent left and right channels (allows balance adjustment).
- Black anodized metal remote handset with volume and mute functions (input selection and balance setting added with remote upgrade).
- Three line level inputs (four optional) selected by a front panel switch controlling relays mounted close to the inputs, minimizing signal path and noise.
- Three color LED to show input selected for standard remote, display for volume setting and input selection with remote upgrade.
- Independent power supplies and regulators for all sections.
- Extensive use of Hovland, Axon, and Wima capacitors and Roderstein resistors
- Linear Technology regulators and Telefunken ultra fast, soft recovery diodes
- Choke loaded high voltage supply.
- Individual polypropylene filter capacitors for each tube section
- Gold pin ceramic tube sockets and silver Teflon wiring
- Heavy gage powder coated steel chassis with chrome or black anodized face plate.
- Full length shield between the power transformers and audio sections
