The L-4000 is a tube line-stage preamplifier with a single gain stage and transformer-coupled outputs. It provides five line-level inputs—two balanced and three unbalanced—and both balanced and unbalanced outputs. Its output transformer is specified for a constant 150-ohm output impedance. The gain stage uses two E810F tubes (D3a is also specified as an option), with two 7233 and two 6485 tubes in the voltage-regulator section.
