The high quality of components used gave to the project a better resolution that reveal to the listener hears a life-like presentation of the musical performance.
FEATURES
- Aluminium Knobs
60mm CNC machined control knobs with integral soft light and laser etched indication segments. - DC Powered tube heater
All tubes, have DC stabilised heater circuits to reduce hum noise to a near in-audible minimum. - Output transformer
The Output transformer uses a double C-core Hi-Grade Iron-Silicon for superb frequency reproduction and bandwidth. With this newly designed custom output transformer unique to the FCO-300B we are able to achieving highly delicate and precise sound reproduction faithful to the original recording. - Mechanical construction of the frame.
The power supply, choke and output transformers are resin cast in a metal case which provides the unit free from unwanted vibrations which further helps reduce unwanted noise at the tubes. - Remote control
A superb CNC machined aluminium body with soft button design, perfectly matching the aesthetics for the "FCO" series. - Bias control
The factory set fine bias control is microprocessor controlled to maintain the optimum settings. No adj are required when the power tube is changed. - Dual mono Circuitry
A completely dual mono design minimises the crosstalk across channels. Power transformers use hi-grade iron silicon M0 and separate supplies with hi-grade selected capacitors to produce extremely low ripple levels. Independent to the mains transformer, each channel has a separate power supply guaranteeing a large reservoir of energy to meet the demands of the amplifier circuit and to maintain excellent interference immunity between channels. - Binding posts
Gold plated professional binding posts for a continued oxidisation free connection further improve sound refinement. - Socket
Gold plated ceramic sockets for a continued oxidisation free connection further improve sound refinement. - Components
Components for the FCO-300B have been selected with great care throughout. Only the best available components are considered and all must undergo an exhaustive analysis of their sonic influence prior to final selection. - Selected tubes
All tubes used are selected after 2 stage warm up. A fully computer monitored machine controls the process and at the end of this, selects the perfect tubes which are matched for a perfect balance. Possibility to run the FCO-300B as “power amp”
