All TAG companies perpetually strive
for, and ac hieve,excellence and highperformance in every area of their
business.
These qualities are demonstrated in the
fastidious standards that make TAG Heuer
watches some of the world’s most
admired;in the teamwork that makes TAG
McLaren’s motor racing team one of the
most successful in Formula One;and in the
advanced electronics technology that
makes TAG Electronic Systems the first
choice for many Formula One constructors
and high-performance car makers.
celebrating a TAG McLaren victory
Now,this blend of talent and
expertise has been combined
with the award-winning
experience of Audiolab to create
a company with a technical
advantage and access to
resources second-to-none in the
high end audio industry TAG McLaren Audio.
TAG McLaren Audio has been created with
one aim in mind:to produce the best highfidelity audio and audio-visual systems
available. Now the first fr uits of that
alliance are ready – a unique new range of
audio products.
Throughout the F3 Series development
process,quality, performance and
reliability have been paramount,resulting

welcome
welcome
Thank you for purchasing the TAG McLaren Audio preamplifier PA20R.
We are convinced it will give you many hours of
listening pleasure.
The PA20R is a high-performance preamplifier which acts
as the command centre for your audio system.It has
microprocessor-controlled relays with gold-plated contacts
for its switching functions and,for added convenience, you
can select inputs,adjust the volume or mute the output by
remote control.‘Straight Line Technology’gives the PA20R
exceptional sound quality with an unusually
wide and flat frequency response.
Furthermore, by painstaking attention to
detail,TAG McLaren Audio engineers have
ensured that the versatile control facilities
do not affect the excellent sound quality.
In particular,the ‘Time Constant Switching’
system ensures that the muting period is
short even though the frequency response
reaches as low as 0.1 Hz.
versatile input
and recording selection
The PA20R has six selectable inputs and
three outputs for recording.A separate signal
path is provided for recording,with its own
independent input selector, so you can
record one piece of music while listening
to another.The microprocessor-controlled
relay switching system in the PA20R
includes a lock-out function to prevent
feedback loops when using a tape recorder.
low intermodulation distortion
The theoretically-ideal preamplifier
reproduces sound perfectly over an infinite
range of frequencies – starting from well
below the audible range and extending far
above the capabilities of human hearing.
Although sound outside the human hearing
range of approximately 20 to 20,000 Hz
cannot be heard,it can significantly distort
the quality of music reproduction through
an effect that audio engineers call
‘intermodulation distortion’.This type of
distortion moves imperfections that
originate outside the hearing range back into
the audible frequencies.To minimise this
effect,TAG McLaren Audio preamplifiers
have a frequency response which extends
0504

welcome
both above and below the range of normal
human hearing.
straight line technology
To prevent intermodulation distortion,
a preamplifier must respond to very low
frequencies but block any Direct Current
(DC).This is traditionally achieved using
capacitors,which also block some of the lowfrequency signal.In the PA20R, a feedback
circuit eliminates DC offset voltage and
allows the signal path to be direct coupled
without any capacitors.This arrangement,
which we at TAG McLaren Audio call
‘Straight Line Technology’,is easy to describe
but not easy to realise.The design has taken
our expert engineers years to perfect.
time constant switching
The PA20R has a sophisticated muting
system which protects your hi-fi and
prevents annoying, loud switching noises
from reaching the output.A preamplifier
that responds to low frequencies will ‘ring’
for a long time in response to the sudden
voltage changes that happen,for example,
when you select a different input.A muting
system that simply waited for the switching
transients to die down naturally would take
far too long to settle.To overcome this
problem,the PA20R incorporates a
technique developed by TAG McLaren Audio
called ‘Time Constant Switching’.
This changes the characteristics of the
preamplifier during input switching to
reduce the settling time,so that the mute
period can be as short as possible.
control of volume and gain
Volume control on the PA20R is via a
motorised potentiometer.This gives you the
convenience of remote control without the
disadvantage of stepped volume changing,as
you might find in a digital electronic system.
The PA20R also has gain control to allow
you to select the right amount of
preamplification for your system to keep the
volume control near the middle of its range.
The gain switching facility is also used to
provide the correct volume range for a
wide variety of headphones.
high-quality circuitry
The circuits in the PA20R are ‘no-
compromise’designs using high-quality,
high-stability components to send a smooth,
clean signal to your power amplifier for
excellent sound quality.As a further
refinement,the power supplies for the
right and left stereo channels have separate
regulators to prevent any interaction
between channels.
versatile analogue output
Two low-impedance outputs are provided
for connection to power amplifiers.As an
option,the PA20R can be fitted with an
additional transformer-coupled, balanced
XLR output for improved resistance to
electromagnetic interference and mains
frequency hum.
The PA20R,at the heart of your system,
keeps everything at the highest level of
hi-performance,hi-fidelity.

Make sure that all the components of your audio system are

You will need a source of audio signals (such as our CD player
CD20R or our tuner T20) to feed into your PA20R. Use a goodquality, screened phono-phono audio cable to connect the phono

Start with the GAIN selector in the middle of its range at 9 dB.
Play some music with roughly average dynamics and adjust the
volume to suit your normal listening. If the VOLUME knob is near
the low end of its scale, decrease the GAIN. If it is near the top

VOLUME knob to sit nearest its middle position.
To avoid excessive sound levels from, and prevent damage to,
your loudspeakers, you should reduce the volume before you turn

to that for your power amplifier and loudspeaker combination.

The AC mains supply normally operates at either 50 or 60 Hz
(depending on which country you are in). Under some
circumstances, this can cause an audible hum in your
loudspeakers.
The audio outputs are intended to connect the PA20R to one or
more power amplifiers (such as our 60P, 100P or 125M).
The low-impedance (100 Ω) output is buffered and will drive long
cables or several inputs in parallel if required.
Should you have any problems with hum in your system,
