An equalizer Pre-Amplifier is the control center of the sound reproducing system. Low distortion,
stability, and adequate frequency response arc as important
in the Equalizer Pre-Amplifier as in the power amplifier. The
Mclntosh C-4 provides these vital features. Circuit arrangement
and techniques bring complete freedom from impulse types of distortion. (Turning the unit on and off or changing the level suddenly
will not cause amplifier flutter.) There are five input channels, two
of which are equalized for use with magnetic cartridges. Stable feedback amplification permits full adjustment of cither the treble or bass
controls without any amplifier instability whatsoever.
