Wyetech Labs has completed development of the Coral, a new high speed, ultra wide bandwidth line stage that follows in the tradition of the Opal and Jade to bring exceptional value in a moderately priced unit.
It will use 3 low noise military specification NOS vacuum tubes void of feedback in a grounded grid configuration. The premium glass epoxy printed circuit boards will have silk screening and masking on two sides to protect circuit foil while ensuring enhanced reliability and extended durability. Delayed power sequencing is used to extend tube life and universal input power is switch selectable. Stepped switches are used for selector, balance and volume control using precision 1% metal film resistors to ensure perfect channel balance and tracking. This is far superior over the traditional use of ALPS or NOBLE potentiometers that are usually found in competing models. All input switching is via on board relays located in proximity with the input RCA connectors. Very low output impedance cathode followers capable of driving long cable runs. Excellent for driving tube or solid state amplifiers.
