This is a Kenwood Basic C1 Stereo Control Amplifier. The unit was purchased second hand by myself and has been tested and working, having been briefly used in a previous setup of mine. It is in excellent condition cosmetically, but as with all electronics of this vintage, youll likely want to show it some TLC as far as replacing caps goes and whatnot if you intend on using it seriously.

This Kenwood Basic C-1 preamplifier has been fully recapped and upgraded. OPAMPs have been upgraded and are now socketed for ease of OPAMP rolling. The opamps installed are JRC NJM4580DD and NJM2068DD .All the Zenner diodes, were changed out,, all the lesser ceramic capacitors for c0g,,, replaced electrolytic caps with fresh Nichicon and Panasonics,,, bipolar in signal path. Replaced small film caps, they are Kemet polypropylene now. Replaced the output relay as well. This modification of this can be found on AudioKarma. Here is link to it and the mods to improve it.Kenwood Basic C1 Preamplifier Restoration/Upgrade | Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo Discussion Forums This is a fantastic neutral sounding preamp that features a terrific variable loudness control, MM and MC phono, and a precision volume control. oh it works and sounds great Cover had some scratches, so i repainted. see pics.

Kenwood Basic C1 Preamplifier Control Pre-Amp Tested as you can see in the pictures there is damage to the case but this does not effect performance. The balance control was tested as well. . Two channels. Inputs - Phono MC (Moving Coil): 0.25mV, 100 OhmPhono MM (Moving Magnet): 2.5mV, 47k OhmCD/Tuner/Aux/Tape: 150mV, 47k Ohm Additionally, it has two tape inputs with independent circuits for each123.The Kenwood Basic C1 is a stereo control amplifier that pairs well with the Basic M1 power amplifier. Cartridge Compatibility: The Basic C1 automatically adjusts to the preferred cartridge based on the input selector. This is made possible by a high-gain, high-stability phono equalizer amplifier with dual inputs, utilizing high-gain FETs for the input stage and a low-noise IC for the output1.Transparent Sound: The preamplifier processes signals smoothly and transparently, without harshness or coloration. It excels in reproducing musical fine details, even in the high-frequency range, and handles complex, dynamic music cleanly1.Tone Control: The tone control circuit is a negative feedback, capacitor-resistor type, providing excellent tonal quality and low distortion. At the center detent position, it achieves a flat response, and adjustments can be made for fine tonal balancing at lower volume levels1.Control Panel: The Basic C1 features two tape inputs (each with independent circuits), two tape monitors, and LED indicators for selectors (Aux, Tuner, Phono MM, MC, and Tape)1.Overall, the Basic C1 delivers clarity, smoothness, and versatility for audiophiles seeking high-quality sound reproduction A full-control unit, the Basic C1 is fully up to the high standards set by its partner, the Basic M1 power amplifier. It contributes clarity, smoothness and the ability to process the most varied and dynamic program material with accuracy.Now that high quality MC cartridges are becoming more affordable, the freedom to select a cartridge to suit the needs of the music is an important advantage in a preamplifier. The Basic C1 adjusts to the preferred cartridge automatically, according to the input selector that is activated.This system is realized through a new high gain, high stability phono equalizer amplifier that has a dual-input function. Its input stage employs two high-gain FETs while the output is a new low noise IC.By changing the negative feedback value and impedance automatically, this new equalizer amplifier allows cartridge selection without any reconnecting inconvenience. In addition, optimum noise and distortion ratings are maintained for both types of cartridge.Many preamplifier designs are disappointing when it comes to actual listening tests, in spite of apparently good performance data. But the Basic C1 preamplifier is one model that will shine out in any such test. S/N ratios and RIAA accuracy are, of course, excellent.But it is the ability of the preamplifier to process signals transparently and smoothly, without any trace of harshness or coloration, that makes it outstanding. It can provide a wealth of musical fine detail especially in the very high frequency range, which is often a disaster zone for preamplifiers. Yet it can handle highly complex and heavy dynamic music cleanly, too.With a super low noise buffer amplifier to feed it, the tone control circuit is a negative feedback, capacitor resistor type that produces no gain and provides excellent tonal quality and low distortion. At the center detent position, totally flat response is obtained.At a point 30dB below maximum vol¬ume level, a 100Hz signal can be boosted from zero dB to 9dB for fine tonal balancing when listening at average to low volume levels.To prevent shock noise when the control amplifier is turned on or off, a relay circuit at the output releases the signal only after all circuits are stabilized.The Basic C1 is equipped with every control that you will need for the maximum enjoyment of every music source. There are two tape inputs (with independent circuits for each) and two tape monitors. Dubbing is accomplished from Tape A to Tape B, Aux and Tuner selectors and Phono MM and MC cartridge selectors, as well as Tape selectors, each have an LED indicator above them.The control panel is simplicity itself, reflecting the clear thinking that exists at Kenwood about what control amplifier priorities really are. The panel is laid out for easy use. And inside, the same philosophy of simpler the better holds for the circuitry.SpecificationsFrequency response: 1Hz to 250kHzTotal harmonic distortion: 0.004%Input sensitivity: 0.25mV (MC), 2.5mV (MM), 150mV (line)Signal to noise ratio: 70dB (MC), 87dB (MM), 108dB (line)Output: 1V (Pre out), 5V (Pre out Max)Dimensions: 440 x 78 x 326mmWeight: 4.2kg

Vorverstärker spielt einwandfrei. Gerät hat deutliche Gebrauchsspuren

Klassischer und hochwertiger Vorverstrker. Technisch funktioniert alles. Kein Kratzen oder Knacken der Regler und Schalter. Dies wurde noch einmal an allen Eingngen getestet (auer Phono MC). Mit regelbarem Loudness, Subsonic Filter, 2x Phono, 2x Tape. Optisch in sehr gutem Zustand, mit geringen Gebrauchsspuren, die ich mit der Kamera herausgestellt habe (Kante vorne rechts). Von vorne sieht man das nicht. Das Gert wird gut verpackt und versichert versendet.

This Kenwood Basic C1 Preamplifier Control Pre-Amp works well and was just cleaned inside and out, including treating all controls with DeOxit. This C1 works well and with clean and equal output from both channels and all functions tested. In good cosmetic condition as well, see images. The C1 is one of the nicest budget preamps out there. Great build quality. See my other listing for the matching Kenwood Basic M1 amplifier

It does work if you turn it on and wait until it feels like sending the output signal on to the Amp. Sometimes that can be 3 hours. I got tired of waiting for tunes and replaced it. Its also missing one leg.
