PARASOUND HALO JC3+

Parasound JC3 er en av John Curl’s legendariske phono forforsterkere. Hans tilnærming til å forsterke ekstremt lave signaler gir lytteren den beste sjansen til å oppleve musikken slik den er tenkt gjengitt. I Parasound JC 3 er den fysiske kretstopologi så kompakt som overhodet mulig for å minimalisere påvirkningen av ekstern støy. Hver kanal har sitt eget kretskort og hver kanal er helt lukket i sitt egen ekstruderte aluminiumshus. Dette huset skiller sensitive kretser fra strømforsyningen og fra eksterne støykilder.

Parasound JC 3 er en av Halo seriens i alt 8 modeller som er på Stereophil’s “Recommended Component” liste for 2015.

How the JC 3 improves on the original JC 3:

Variable MC load adjust independent for each channel from 50-550 ohms with dual gang potentiometers specially made for Parasound by Vishay.
Curl-Thompson tweaked circuits to further reduce the JC 3 silent background noise.
24k gold plated copper traces on phono module boards for utmost conductivity and most transparency/detail in the music.
47% larger low ESD power supply filter caps greater reserve for head-snapping dynamics.
82% larger R-core power transformer greater reserve for more low end impact.
Ability to turn off illumination of the front panel P logo.
