Cambridge Audio Azur 851E voorversterker

So little distortion, it’s barely measurable
This true analogue preamplifier delivers an incredibly pure signal. The 851E delivers so little harmonic distortion and adds so little noise to incoming signals that we can barely measure it. In preamplifiers, that’s a very good thing!

Vastly improving over its predecessors, the key to the 851E is its innovative solid state volume control that offers precise control, retains channel balance accurately at low levels and offers truly linear performance, all without introducing any distortion to the precious analogue source signal.

Above and beyond that, the 851E offers improved source connections with eight inputs, including three XLR balanced inputs for superior audio fidelity and to match the best high-end modern sources.

The 851E is designed as a truly high-end component throughout, with Terrapin impedance buffering modules to separate amplifier and signal impedance, delivering an even consistent sound across different sources; flexible and controllable trigger outputs and control bus, for integration with power amplifiers; and an all-metal chassis, designed to isolate the electronics from unwanted external interference. The end result is the best true analogue preamplifier Cambridge Audio has ever made, and an ideal companion to our 851W power amplifier.
