Boulder 1110/1160

摘要

It's the style of the Boulder 1100 series amplification that grabs you first. It's very different from the common image of US-made high-end hi-fi, the £30,000 1160 stereo power amp and £22,500 1110 line-only preamp having a much softer look. The 1110 is little more than five sets of inputs - on balanced XLRs only - and three sets of outputs, two main and one auxiliary, plus source selection and Boulder's own balanced volume control. However, each input can be adjusted for polarity (as can the output of the whole preamp), trim (by up to 25dB) and balance (by 12dB in either direction), or converted into a unity-gain passthrough for use with a home cinema processor.
