DESCRIPTION

The circuitry components used in the CA-801 Signature Edition are carefully chosen and hand soldered on the military grade epoxy circuit boards. Only pure silver/Teflon coaxial cables were used for routing between the jacks and the gold plated ELMA rotary switch. The volume control being used is a 24-positions stepped attenuator hand built by our engineers. Even the DC power cables used to connect the line stages to the power supplies were built.

These are perfect in every way. Not a single blemish (no scratches, nicks, dings or anything internal or external). All the corners and sides on every aluminum face plate, rear plate, top plate and chassis are perfect...no dings, scratch, nick, blemish or stories whatsoever. Even the base is perfect. I am very particular and feel for machining imperfections and on top and bottom - there just are none.

Very beautiful Pewter blue/gray color anodized. Great for Horn Speakers.

***2 high quality AC power cord and 2 Canary DC connectors are also included***

OF WORTHY NOTE:

This is the same OEM that designed and builds the current $124,999.00 Western Electric Monoblock Amplifiers (not a typo).

See: https://www.westernelectric.com/97a-monoblock-amplifiers

These Canary Audio amplifiers and preamplifiers use the same components, hardware, wiring, capacitors etc. Even the machine shop and metal stamping, silkscreen as well as the anodizing facilities. The thick aluminum plates and chassis panels, boards are the very same. Best of all it is all made here in the USA.

Note: Canary CA-303 MonoBlock amplifiers on both sides not included (see my other listings).
