The CT2 Audio Volume Controls are high quality
stepped 24-position attenuators. Designed for maximum sonic quality,
accuracy and reliability. This makes them equally suited for audiophile
and professional applications.
Available as master volume
control with 60dB attenuation range (1, 2, 4, 6, 8 decks) and as
individual channel fine adjustment (CT2-10k-1/fine) with 0.5dB level
change between each step (only available with 1 deck) Their series resistor networks consist of 23 non-inductive, low noise, SMD metal film resistors.
The
layout of the PC Boards and the choice of SMD resistors have reduced
the signal path to a minimum length (typical five times shorter than
conventional stepped attenuator designs with leaded resistors). The PCB
design combined with the special resistors also account for the very
low series inductance and the very low stray capacitance.
The result is a bandwidth beyond even the most demanding audiophiles’ requirements.
There
has been special care taken to ensure the durability of CT2. Therefore,
all contacts and PCB traces are gold plated to prevent any corrosion.
As a result, the CT2s will maintain their specifications after long
time of use even in hot and humid environments.
