Tobian Sound Systems SC12 Preamplifier -Simply Uncompromising

All components which are critical for the result, are manufactured especially for this preamplifier. For example, our custom in-house developed 34 Steps Autoformer which can adjust the volume levels ultra-finely to illustrate the level of quality with zero loss. In all our products we are very passionate regarding the use of directly heated triodes (DHT) as our hallmark, without them we believe the ultimate expression of music reproduction would not be possible.

SC12 is made with 4 in-house custom-made state-of-the-art E-Core and M-Core, power, output, and signal transformers, Sliver internal wire, and true point-to-point (PTP) wiring. Not less important is the choice of the rectifier and DHT Triodes, where we use the best possible current production tubes TA 300b which by their performance are the closest to the legendary Western Electric 300b.

The sum of clever engineering, selection of best components, and meticulous Swiss attention to detail give us a pre-amplifier that meets all the wishes and expectations of even the most critical audiophiles with a potent source. We strongly believe that we managed to create a one-of-a-kind preamplifier.
