WAVAC PR-X1 — features

The PR-X1 is a valve line-level preamplifier with an outboard power supply. Moving the power supply away from the audio chassis allows the main unit to be unusually slim and helps isolate the signal circuitry from transformer-related interference.

Notable features include:

• Six line inputs — three intended for higher-output/”digital level” sources and three for conventional analogue-level sources.
• Separate external power supply.
• Valve circuitry housed beneath a gold-plated shielding enclosure.
• The CPU/control circuitry is also enclosed in a gold-plated shield to minimise interference.
• Designed to partner WAVAC power amplifiers but specifically intended to work with other manufacturers’ power amplifiers as well
