Quad ARTERA PRE Analogue Pre-amplifier

Description

Introducing ‘Artera Pre’ from QUAD, Britain’s original high-end audio company, draws upon the company’s rich technical heritage whilst being a design firmly of the present.

The first dedicated analogue preamplifier in QUAD’s Artera Series.

The company’s flagship range of solid-state audio electronics, the Artera Pre reintroduces a famous QUAD feature – the Tilt control.

The Tilt control is unique to QUAD and is a precise and consistent way to adjust sound to compensate for different recordings and the acoustics of different rooms.

Vinyl lovers and headphone users are well catered for with dedicated, high-quality circuitry.

The Artera Pre’s low-noise, Class A phono stage is configurable for both MM and MC cartridges.

An integrated headphone amplifier features a discrete, Class A output stage with low output impedance to drive even the toughest of loads.

Four stereo RCA inputs are provided – three line-level and one phono – plus one balanced XLR.

All inputs can run in direct mode if preferred, to provide the shortest possible signal path from input to output.
