The double triode tube runs at high voltage in a setup for maximum linearity, taking care of the voltage amplification only. A MOS-FET circuitry delivers the brute force driving the line stage output and feedback circuitry, thus securing a firm handshake between the world of electronic tubes governed by voltage and the current controlled transistor technology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nIf you prefer the warm and nice colored charm of some older tube designs look elsewhere, the CSA100 tube line stage is made for monitoring. In this application the tube provides life, headroom and dynamics hard to find in amplifiers relying on solid stage technology only.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nA single chassis machined from aluminium alloy to avoid magnetic interference. For the vinyl enthusiast the CSA100 has RIAA input for moving magnet or high output moving coil cartridges.The amplifier also employs an excellent D\/A converter with multiple S\/PDIF inputs, PCM, and DSD capabilities using the ES9018 Reference 32-bit DAC in quad-mono configuration, 8 mono to 2 stereo configuration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe CSA100 USB input implementation is featuring  USB 2.0 PCM 24\/32 bit data transfer to 384 kHz, including native DSD64 and high resolution DSD128.\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe asynchronous USB-B port connects to your computer’s USB-A port. Once connected, the computer recognizes the CSA100 and routes the digital audio data to it, bypassing the source device’s internal audio circuitry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nUSB Driver for Windows:\u003cbr\u003e\nDedicated USB driver software is necessary to install on PC for Windows.
