![]() ![]() SHUNT type: Only two resistors in signal path.With a long life in excess of 50,000 cycles they are a perfect match for the L5 pre-amplifier. We supply the L5 pre-amplifier with this top quality attenuator that ensures there is absolutely minimal losses in the signal path. Thus when music makes quick changes and demands instantaneous current addition, this additional current will come from the SHUNT resistor mounted on the chassis. SHUNT regulation provides an additional reservoir of current (30ma) to be running from B+ at all times separate from the standard current draw of the line stage. It’s our recently developed and highest level power supply specification with over specified Mains, Dual 4 pole chokes & 2 x 5U4G Tube Rectification, 35mm Mundorf Mlytic Power Supply Capacitors and SHUNT regulation. The Level 5 power supply is the magic behind the Mentor. The filament section has a separate board with individual heaters for each line stage tube. Employing Audio Note 1W tantalum resistors, ELNA Silmic Electrolytics and Audio Note or V-Cap coupling capacitors, the parts are top of the line for this L5 series Pre-amplifier.Īn ELMA selector and extension kit are used to allow very short wire runs from the input RCAs to the output board. The Driver stage employs the popular 6SN7 input stage followed by an ECC99 to drive the C-Core output transformers. Couple the Mentor with one of our top of the line monoblock amplifiers such as the Legend or Interstage C-Core Monoblocks or the E元4 C-Core Power Monoblocks and you will experience unparalleled musical involvement. With the Mentor your beloved power amplifier & speaker investment will finally be realized. The result is outrageous dynamics, subtleties and sensitivity delivered to the power amplifier. The Mentor uses 2 x Triple C-Core output transformers for maximum signal energy transfer and the ability to handle long interconnection runs. This SHUNT regulated design delivers instantaneous current to the driver stage in response to the ever changing demands of the audio signal. Based on our proprietary power supply design technology which incorporates Dual 5U4G Rectifiers, Dual 4 pole Chokes and Large Mains Transformer more commonly found In power amplifiers. Our next generation pre-amplifier architecture is now available with the release of the Level 5 Mentor Line pre-amplifier. Next generation technology – Our ultimate pre-amplifier Here you can see an L5 Mentor in the build process without the shield installed at this point – a great pic to see all the inner workings The Mentor was first introduced in 2015 as we were exploring higher and higher levels of audio nirvana– since then we have come out with an L4 version and a remote control option, along with our Professionally built Edition. Dual 4 Pole Mundorf Mlytic caps are used also in the power supply along with a Chassis Mount 50W shunt resistor – the result of this technology is staggering dynamics and jet black ultra low noise background! you would have to hear it to believe it ! Under development for over 5 years to create the ultimate pre-amp that will rival any ultra expensive Pre-amp in the world – We start with no compromise SHUNT style Power Supply using 2 x 5u4g rectifiers ( or we 274b) and dual 4 pole chokes ( patented technology). The Mentor L5 Pre-Amplifier is simply our finest level of Pre-amplification technology. ![]() The detail, the sensitivity, it has to be experienced to be believed.” “The Mentor will change the way you listen to music. ![]()
