Introducing Cor
The PMC cor is a pure analogue integrated amplifier designed for transparency, neutrality and musical detail. Its Class A/B amplification combines ample power with refined sound reproduction, allowing connected loudspeakers to perform without added sonic coloration.
Take Control
The cor features motorized volume, balance, bass and treble controls inspired by professional mixing consoles. Adjustments can be made remotely, while a defeat option bypasses the tone controls to route audio directly through the volume control.
Striking The Right Tone
Unlike designs that use digital processing for volume or tone adjustment, the cor maintains an entirely analogue signal path. Its precision tone faders and volume control allow adjustments without converting the audio signal into the digital domain.
The Power To Deliver
A pure analogue Class A/B power amplifier delivers 95W into 8 ohms or 140W into 4 ohms. Short signal paths, minimal junctions and dual independent power supplies help reduce distortion while providing precise control and dynamic performance.
Keeping It Pure
Electronically balanced internal signal routing helps minimize interference and maintain audio purity. The motorized controls have an independent power supply, while a custom MuMETAL® enclosure shields the toroidal transformer to protect sensitive components.
The Ins & Outs
The cor provides five audio inputs, including a balanced connection for professional audio equipment. Preamp outputs support additional power amplification, while a direct power amplifier input enables integration with home theatre systems.
Making The Case For Craftsmanship
The cor features a precision-machined aluminum chassis with distinctive fluting and a protective anodized finish. Its heavyweight construction dissipates heat efficiently, helping maintain stable operating temperatures and consistent performance.
Sitting Comfortably
An extruded aluminum remote control provides convenient adjustment of volume, balance and tone settings. All adjustments remain entirely analogue, preserving the original audio signal without digital conversion.
Unrivalled Sound Without Speakers
A dedicated, auto-sensing Class A/B headphone amplifier delivers powerful, transparent sound through connected headphones. The circuit accommodates different headphone sensitivities while providing protection against overload.
Always Testing. Always Listening.
PMC carefully selects, measures and tests individual components to maintain consistent performance. Extensive listening evaluations help ensure the finished amplifier meets the manufacturer's standards for musical transparency and reliability.
