C5P is a high - performance pure class-A all - valve preamplifier.
Conceived as the natural partner for Unison Research P3oK Power amplifier,
it will also give excellent results with almost all power amplifiers
of suitable quality, whether valve or solid state.
Inside C5P
The printed circuit has been designed with the absolute minimum number
of components placed in the signal path, each one being of the highest
quality and carefully selected for its particular job.
Special attention has also been paid to the circuit layout, designed
for the lowest possible capacitance. The result of this careful attention
to detail is a sound rich in detail, tonal colour and micro-contrast,
with a wide and convincing soundstage.
The power supply is generously dimensioned, and based around a specially
designed toroidal transformer having very low magnetic flux.
Controls
C5P is supplied complete with radiowave remote control of volume, activated
by an elegant wood handset. Radio control allows convenient operation,
from out of sight of the preamplifier if required. The input selector
is a high - quality unit, hermetically sealed and with sliding gold contact
surfaces for silent operation and long life.
Optional Phono Board
A highly sophisticated all-valve phono stage is available to cater for
vinyl replay.
This is based on a pure class-A, passive RIAA circuit using three twin-triode
valves and is switchable for optimal matching of both MM and MC cartridges.
The phono board is mounted on a compliant rubber suspension to reduce
microphone.
Appearance Design
No Unison Research product would be complete without an attractive appearance
design.
C5P is no exception. Its understated elegance is enhanced by control
knobs in machined stainless steel which are silky smooth in operation.
All wood parts are hand crafted and finished in vegetable lacquer to
give them a natural organic look and feel.
Last but not least, all connectors are gold plated for long life.

Mark Levinson 326S Baby version of the Ref 32 Pre-amp at a reasonable cost of £6,995. Like most technologies the benefits of the research for the reference products trickle down into more affordable products like the 326s Pre-amp.

Ayre Acoustics C-5xe Universal Disk Player Stereophile Extract: "It ought to be fairly obvious that I found the Ayre C-5xe more than satisfactory. I didn't expect it to disappoint, but I was unprepared for just how much it delighted me. I've heard a lot of impressive audio components over the years, but I've heard very few that afforded me greater musical pleasure or sent me on as many voyages of musical discovery through discs I thought I knew well." - Wes Phillips, July, 2005 |
Gryphon Diablo The ultimate reference integrated amplifier at £6100. The Gryphon sonic magic in a reasonable sized and georgeous case, you must hear this as it puts most pre power combo's to shame, pure music at its best. |
Brinkmann LaGrange turntableThe Brinkmann LaGrange turntable is without a doubt the best source component I have ever had the chance to enjoy over an extended period of time. It represents a level of perfection and emotional connection to music that I have never heard before. - Danny Kaey extract from Positive Feedback |
Teac Esoteric DV-50SThe Esoteric DV-50 is the most fun you can have with digital music playback short of the dCS trio reviewed by Michael Fremer in April 2003 (Vol.26 No.4). Given that the dCS gear costs about six times as much as the DV-50, the Esoteric is a screaming bargain, especially considering its hyper-advanced technology, bulletproof build, and exceptional sound. You can even play movies on it. - Stereophile Extract |
