ELECTROCOMPANIET EC 4.9

Pre owned. In excellent condition. Free from evident signs of wear. Without original packaging.

Designed for multi-channel music recording enthusiasts, the EC 4.9 stands out as an exclusive fully balanced six-channel preamplifier, developed with a design philosophy focused on high-fidelity music reproduction rather than traditional Home Theatre applications. Its circuitry is engineered with the same technical rigor adopted by Electrocompaniet for its reference stereo models, ensuring true audiophile-grade performance and exceptionally accurate sound reproduction.

The internal architecture features carefully selected audiophile-quality components and a fully independent design in which each channel operates separately from the others while benefiting from its own dedicated power supply system. This configuration preserves signal integrity and delivers precise, dynamic, and perfectly balanced sound reproduction in every listening setup.

When paired with Electrocompaniet’s AW 3x120-M power amplifier, the EC 4.9 can switch seamlessly between multi-channel and bridged stereo operation, allowing listeners to enjoy the same outstanding sound quality and immersive performance in stereo mode as in multi-channel playback.

The sophisticated volume control offers an extremely wide adjustment range from -111 dB to +6 dB, enabling precise output level optimization according to system configuration. The front panel also features a practical vertical bar display that allows real-time monitoring of each channel’s output level, ensuring immediate and accurate control of system performance.
