Django AVC auto-transformer passive preamplifier


The Django represents the ultimate transparency as expected with a passive attenuator, but with dynamics. Many listeners have been amazed at the dynamic shadings even at the lowest listening levels. The difference compared to resistor based passive attenuators is that resistors throw away signal as heat were as the Django uses auto-transformer volume control. This means when the voltages is stepped down the current is stepped up (without energy loss). This gives the Django the power to drive long interconnects even better then an active preamplifier. Ideal match for the Ladyday, Joplin and the Ella. Complete with a full colour assembly manual.

Silk Audio AVC Supermalloy SQ annealed core, MU shielded, 28 steps, high purity copper/teflon leadout wires, beautiful stainless 5x7cm can with mounting brackets.

The new Silk AVC now has 10 DB more attenuation with 28 steps! If you own sensitive speakers you are likely limited to a very small range of adjustment on your volume control. Similarly, if you listen in a quiet environment or at low listening levels you may have often wished for finer volume adjustment levels on a stepped attenuator. The Django AVC has all the advantages of a supermalloy inductive volume control. High inductance, excellent bass slam, transparency, detail, presence etc. The Django AVC also uses a very special totally nonmagnetic copper brass and gold switch from Seiden Japan.
