KONDO G-700i

This unit has been developed as a line preamplifier that combines the rich and mature sound of the G-70 with the expressive power of the flagship model G-1000. Through careful circuit design and countless listening tests, we have achieved top-class specifications and refined expressive capabilities.

It is neither a downgrade of the G-1000 nor an upgrade of the G-70, but has the expressive power appropriate for this class.

Features:

Equipped with a 50-point attenuator employing a newly developed high-quality MELF-type resistor.

Power supply unit and amplification unit are housed in separate enclosures to minimize the effects of vibration and magnetic flux leakage.

Decoupling capacitors are placed near the amplification module to minimize signal loops.

Large shunt-type heater power circuit redesigned to accommodate increased current.

A variety of in-house components including SSWs and pure silver foil capacitors are used, and each component is carefully manufactured by hand-wiring.

Pure copper chassis for open sound.

Front panel with the same curved wires as the GE-7.

By housing the power transformer in a separate chassis and making it independent of the amplification section, the influence of vibration and magnetic leakage is eliminated to the maximum extent. Additionally, while having a separate power supply section, it is designed to fit into a single audio rack.

Ultra-high-quality parts:

ATT unit, copper main chassis, pure silver foil capacitors, pure silver lead resistors, SSW wiring material, pure silver shielded wire, silver-palladium plated RCA jacks, zirconia vacuum tube sockets. In addition, high-quality original components such as custom-made electrolytic capacitors, power transformers, and chokes are used. Carefully selected components are effectively placed throughout the unit.

Power Cable (included):

ACz-AVOCADO
