C500 OWNERS’ CERTIFICATE
Dear Cambridge Audio Owner,
Thank you for purchasing this C500 Control Amplifier.
At Cambridge Audio we are dedicated to the manufacture of quality audio products of the highest possible value. Coupled with its perfect partner, the P500 Power Amplifier, your C500 is capable of true hi-end performance without the inflated price tag normally associated with hi-end equipment. We have achieved this by careful design, thorough attention to detail, streamlined production techniques and by listening to our customers. We are grateful that you have selected this product and would welcome any comments that you may have.
The C500 design adheres to the principles of true hi-fi. High precision, low noise, shielded pre-amplifier circuits, utilising stabilised power supplies, result in an amplifier with a staggering price performance ratio. Signal paths within the amplifier are all as short as possible and together with a direct switch that bypasses the tone controls, the topology is fully optimised to give a great sound stage and dynamic, freely flowing sound.
Inclusions such as a custom designed high efficiency audio grade transformer, metal film resistors, multiple audio
grade capacitors and a high quality, unity gain, low noise output buffer further reinforce this amplifiers audiophile identity.
Completing its impressive specification, the C500 has a specially selected high quality volume potentiometer, bass and treble controls, five line-level inputs and a tape monitor function. For your armchair convenience we also supply an SRC-01 Remote Control to adjust the volume on your C500 and control other Cambridge Audio products such as a CD Player and Tuner.
No corners have been cut concerning build quality, with the amplifier’s solid aluminium facia not only providing a classy finish, but also contributing to overall chassis rigidity.
On behalf of Cambridge Audio, may I wish you many happy years of listening pleasure!
James Johnson-Flint
Chairman
