We are convinced it will give you many hours of
listening pleasure.
The PA10 preamplifier is an ideal entry into the world of
audio separates. By using a separate ‘box’ for each part of
your audio system you minimise the interference normally
caused by the close proximity of components. Separating
the preamplifier from the power amplifier also means that
the power supply is not shared, so power fluctuations
caused by the power amplifier do not
affect the preamplifier.
versatile input
and recording selection
The PA10 has six selectable inputs (five line
level and one RIAA-specification phono for
turntables) and three outputs for recording.
The phono input can be configured for
either a moving magnet or a moving coil
cartridge. A separate signal path is provided
for recording, with its own independent
input selector, so you can record one piece
of music while listening to another.
low intermodulation distortion

reproduces sound perfectly over an infinite
range of frequencies – starting from well
below the audible range and extending far

above the capabilities of human hearing.
Although sound outside the human hearing
range of approximately 20 to 20,000 Hz
cannot be heard, it can significantly distort
the quality of music reproduction through
an effect that audio engineers call
‘intermodulation distortion’.This type of
distortion moves imperfections that
originate outside the hearing range back
into the audible frequencies.To minimise
this effect,TAG McLaren Audio
preamplifiers have a frequency response
which extends both above and below the
range of normal human hearing.
high-quality circuitry
The circuits in the PA10 (a Class A
amplifier) are ‘no-compromise’ designs
using high-quality, high-stability,
components to send a smooth, clean signal
