Parasound NewClassic 200Pre - Preamplifier

A stereo preamplifier with a Burr-Brown 24-bit/192kHz DAC borrowed from Parasound's Halo P 5, a built-in phono stage, and a pure analog signal path from input to output. Combines digital convenience with analog purity, in a compact 1U chassis.

• Burr-Brown 24-bit/192kHz DAC with USB, optical, and coaxial digital inputs
• 4 analog inputs plus a phono input for MM or MC cartridges
• Analog bass management with variable 20–140Hz high-pass crossover and remote-controlled subwoofer on/off and level
• Variable and fixed stereo outputs, plus a bypass input for surround sound or streamer integration
• Default turn-on volume memory and favorite volume recall via remote
• Input level matching to balance volume across different sources
• Dedicated headphone amplifier
• Front-panel dimmable LCD display with renameable inputs
• 2-way RS232 with exact volume control and feedback, plus 12V trigger output and rear IR input
• Back-lit remote control with discrete buttons
