About the C-280L
The Accuphase C-280L is a stereo control preamplifier introduced in February 1987. It incorporates a fully balanced line amplifier with separate hot- and cold-phase signal paths, four-channel precision volume control, and Class A push-pull circuitry. Its dual-mono power supply uses dedicated transformers and regulated supply circuits. Features include MC and MM phono inputs, multiple line-level inputs, balanced and unbalanced outputs, tape monitoring, a low-frequency volume compensator, and a subsonic filter. It was Accuphase’s former reference preamplifier and is no longer manufactured.
