LT-6P Preamplifier Front

The audio signals at the playback components are at their most delicate and it is at this earliest stage where tube-type pre-amplification seems to best preserve the signal's integrity.

The Wright Audio LT-6P not only maintains signal integrity but also allows for Bass and Treble adjustment due to the wide variety of tonal balances in today's digital sources as well as the past's analog recordings. Music lovers will especially appreciate the control over the widely varying tonal balances of vinyl records and digital internet sources.

The Bass and Treble Controls in this preamplifier are passive. Other than the controls themselves and very few associated parts, there are no other devices in the signal path.

This approach is unlike traditional 'active' feedback-type controls which require an additional amplification stage in the signal path and its associated distortions which have given some audiophiles reason to dislike these controls. Due to the passive nature of the controls, they can't be bypassed, but the controls actually allows the amplification stage to operate in an improved, better-sounding range. This preamplifier actually sounds better than many which do not have tone controls.

The preamplifier uses a vacuum tube, filtered power supply operating at less than one-sixth of its capacity to maintain the purity of the signal. There are no solid-state devices in the preamplifier with the exception of the tube heaters' power supply. Also, there are no circuit boards allowing shorter signal paths and for future possible circuit and parts upgrades with relative ease.

The capabilities of handling up to six inputs, two fixed-level outputs and two independently powered and isolated variable outputs provides maximum versatility for any installation. Yet installing and using the preamplifier is completely intuitive. The high-visibility of the front panel settings from a few feet away avoids illuminated displays which can fail altogether over time.

The LT-6P Stereo Tube Preamplifier offers the dynamics, soundstage dimensionality, nuance and clarity which make listening to music the indescribable joy it should be.

Preamplifier accommodates any line-level audio device with an analog output except Phono. Six inputs.
Passive Fixed Level Output Switch selects between two outputs for use with a stand-alone headphone amplifier, any type of wireless transmitter, recording device or similar. 'Off' position isolates connected devices from each other and the preamplifier. Preamplifier need not be powered on for this feature.
Two electrically isolated, but identical outputs for driving the power amplifier and a subwoofer system. Drives up to about 50 feet of low-capacitance cable.
Individually-mounted, high quality RCA input and output jacks.
Tube complement: (4) ECC81 / 12AT7; (1) GZ34 / 5AR4 rectifier. Clear gray acrylic tube shields.
