FOR SALE ONLY THE LUXMAN C-02 PREAMPLIFIER.

In perfect working order and almost perfect aesthetic condition, please look carefully at the images that show the product I am selling (detail of small scratches on the upper trim).

The Status Series M-02 and C-02 didn't begin their lives as such : they were planned as C-400 and M-400, taking over the C-300 / M-300 combo, with the styling of the L-550 for the C-400. The planned high-end status of the original "400" combo was well.

Both prototypes were presented at the march 1983 french Hi-Fi Fair but were revised quickly thereafter to become the M-02 and C-02, smaller siblings of the already available C-05 and M-05.

The Luxman C-02 preamplifier incorporates the renowned Duo-Beta Circuit/S into the simple single-stage amplification system, assuring superb audio performance. The unique bias circuit employs LEDs instead of diodes to provide speedy attack and decay. There is a warm-up indicator for stable, safe operation, abundant applications for special audio capacitors, and gold-plated input/output terminals to reduce contact resistance. It implements genuine class "A" operation for purest sound without crossover distortion and phono-straight to give perfect independence to disc playback. The MC transformer is used with non-oxidized copper wires for clean sonic quality. Powerful, stabilized bass and midrange reproduction is realized thanks to the slim but effective circular transformer offering excellent regulation together with select capacitors exclusively developed for audio purpose. The Luxman C-02 is suitable for those who seek a vintage system.

This pre-amp is well known for it's phono section, especially with MC carts. It's in excellent condition, sounds great and works flawlessly. It has two outputs which facilitates bi-amping or can be used with a powered sub-woofer.
