With the circuit shown in the following schematic diagram, both channels
of this stereo preamp is constructed using RCA CA3052 quad AC
amplifier. this pre-amplifier circuit is featured with tone control
(bass – treble). Make a similar circuit to complete the other channel,
since the circuit for left and right channel are similar. To be
high-fidelity, total harmonic distortion should be kept minimum, this
circuit gives less than 0.3% distortion level at at 1-kHz testing
signal with 1-V amplitude.
Gain or amplification at 1 kHz is 47 dB,
and the tone control will curve the response with 11.5-dB boost at 100
Hz and 10 kHz at maximum bass and treble boost. For minimum bass and
treble knob position, the attenuation will be 10dB at 100 Hz and 9dB
at 10kHz. This circuit is operated by a single ended supply for wider
range environment. Inputs can be from tape recorders pickup or
magnetic-cartridge phonographs.
