Description :
To begin with, forget any comparison to ordinary passive line-stage controls. The active LS1 goes far beyond them - in musicality, in technical innovation, in quality of manufacture. Its predigree, in other words, is pure Audio Research. It includes Audio Research's famous hybrid tube/solid state circuit technology, unstinting parts and manufacture. The LS1 offers owners the exceptional convenience of seven inputs, including the new Direct Gain Path, which bypasses all major controls except Gain - and provides a degree of resolution that challenges the best preamps in the world. The LS1 features Audio Research's own oxygen-free Litz wire in critical circuit paths, as well as audiophile-grade connectors selected for their sonic purity. And for audiophiles who own signal processor or who bi-wire, the LS1 offers two main outputs.
