Allnic has redesigned the L-10000 OTL/OCL preamp’s entire circuit, including the power transformer, and refined its world’s first 61-step constant impedance attenuator - refinements now standard and to be applied to the constant impedance attenuators in all products using them going forward. Together, these upgrades have resulted in a new noise floor for the L-10000 OTL/OCL, reduced by more than 50% and providing even greater transparency, detail, dynamic response, and imaging. Also, in line with the announcement above, the price remains the same for the Signature Edition as for the already industry-leading earlier iteration.
The Signature Edition features a more versatile and better-sounding circuit designed to use the ECF802 /6JW8 in place of 6AN8a for the front end, with new options to use E80CC/6211 (as well as 12BH7, ECC82/12au7 types) for the driver tube positions. 300B tubes of course, stay the same. Twin internal independent circuits (dual mono) for total channel isolation, and a significantly reduced noise floor. Gain is reduced from 18 dB to 12 dB to allow for more range on the Allnic exclusive 61-Step Constant Impedance Attenuator. These upgrades are beneficial for digital audio, while preserving the low noise floor necessary for lower output phono stages that require more gain from the line stage.
