5  Tube Output Option 

The c|AQWO is manufactured with high-end OPA outputs, but a tube output option is available. This option can 
be assembled at the factory, or later by your local technician. 

The specific design of Métronome tube output allows to switch from OPA to tube, and thus to adapt the sound 
profile to your personal tastes and the type of music you are listening to. 

When the tube section is installed in c|AQWO, the main screen ads a specific pictogram: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When coloured, the tube section is activated 
(press once to change and switch to OPA)
