Ultimate Pre-Amp Performance
The Pre90 features a similar high-performance NFCA(Nested Feedback Composite Amplifier) module as the brand’s flagship A90 amplifier. It provides excellent AC and DC performance with technologies like VCHF (Voltage Current Hybrid Feedback Architecture) and UHGF(Ultra High Gain Feedback). You can expect excellent performance with the Pre90 amplifying low power signals with a gain of up to 16dB to make it acceptable for your power amplifier levels.
Ultra-low Noise Floor
The ultra-low noise floor of less than 0.3uVrms is miles ahead of its competition and makes the Topping Pre90 the Pre-amp one might need in its audio chain. The device boasts a high dynamic range of up to 145dB, ensuring excellent performance with a super clean dark background.
One Pre-Amp For All Your Sources
The Pre90 features a fully balanced structure that can handle both balanced and single-ended signals. On itself, the Pre90 features one single-ended RCA input and one balanced XLR input, but with the help of Ext90, it can be connected to 2xRCA single-ended and up to 4xXLR balanced inputs. So it can be connected with multiple sources and active input can be selected easily via the included remote control. For output, the Pre-90 features fully balanced XLR and single-ended RCA output. You can also output from both the ports simultaneously to connect to two amplifier systems at once.
High-Performance Volume Relay
Equipped with a large number of premium Japanese small volume relay components, the Pre90 offers precise volume adjustments with around 0.5dB volume adjustment with each step. When the device is switched on, the Pre90 automatically reduces to a safe volume level to prevent accidental damage to your speakers or headphones.
Safe Volume Feature
The Pre90 features a safe volume option that kicks in when the set safe volume exceeds for the selected input/output port. It saves up your costly pieces of equipment and priceless hearing abilities. This feature can be turned off from the settings menu using the remote control.
