Audio Research engineers were given a simple mission in designing the new LS2: create the best line stage preamplifier ever, but skip the frills. The remarkably successful outcome also happens to be affordable.

Approaching the theoretic ideal of a "straight wire with gain", the LS2 maintains optimal signal purity by offering only the most essential control functions: a precision, four-section, 41-detent attenuator and a gold-contact input selector switch. For ultimate sonic fidelity, the LS2 owner may select the Direct Gain Path - a separate set of inputs which routes the incoming source signal directly to the attenuator and on to the gain stage.

Additional controls include manual muting (complementing a sophisticated auto-muting circuit) and switch-defeatable tape outputs, used to prevent adverse loading effects when some tape recorders are connected to the tape outputs.

Like other Audio Research preamplifiers and line stages, the LS2 is a true Class-A circuit, capable of swinging 50 volts at the output, peak-to-peak. It provides 18dB of overall gain-perfect for today's line level sources.

Importantly, the LS2 contains the most sophisticated, extensively regulated power supplies ever found in a single-chassis Audio Research design. It even has a second transformer feeding (and effectively isolating) a unique active-feedback circuit. The LS2 also incorporates three new, patented Decoupled Electrolytic Capacitor networks, which help prevent electronic grunge and coloration from contaminating critical middle and high frequencies (where the listener's ear is especially sensitive).

In addition to its six sets of line-level inputs, the LS2 offers a highly flexible complement of output connectors: one set is single-ended (RCA), while two other sets are balanced (XLR). This full range of connectors, together with the LS2's high-current output capability, allows you to effectively drive multiple power amplifiers simultaneously, whether single ended or balanced.

For the music lover who insists on the highest levels of performance from his audio system, and who prefers to forego unnecessary control features and their attendant expense, the LS2 meets the most stringent criteria of musicality and cost effectiveness. It's one more example of the genuine value Audio Research has built into every one of its products for the last twenty years .
