have an opportunity on one of these. i do find the look stunning but would like to know more about it on the musical/technical side.
it's not very much discussed xcept as classic partner to STA 15 or 20 power amps. any link or info welcomed :)

Have you checked the AoS Library?

;)thanks
yeah, it's mentioned but that's about it...

ok, got some info. preamp gets power from the power amp - like the quad II/22 combo. seemed to be a very british feature back then.
so it won't work with my 8B which, on the contrary, needs a 7 or 7t to get switched on! talk about proprietary branding!
this i easily solved by pluggin' it to a dedicated filtered switch-box ( pics to come on the 8b thread)
too bad, i really liked sc2 industrial looks

There is some information on the SC2 here:

I thought I had a circuit diagram for the SC2, but it turned out to be for the SC22, a quite different preamp.
