Rupert Neve 5042 Two Channel "True Tape" Emulation and Line Driver (Horizontal)



Link: rupertneveTechnical Documents | Product Manual | Recall Sheet | User GUIDE

The Rupert Neve 5042 provides a remarkable simulation of true tape sound through the inclusion of genuine tape drive circuitry. When the Tape circuit is not engaged, the 5042 may be used as a full, transformer-coupled, high-performance line amplifier that includes a Gain range of + and – 12 dB. The Portico™ 5042 Two Channel "True Tape" Emulation and Line Driver unit’s emulation circuit provides the nostalgic rounding and compression usually only achieved by the use of tape. This typically offsets the harshness often found in digital recordings. The Portico™ 5042 incorporates an actual tape drive circuit that feeds a tiny magnetic “head” which, in turn, is coupled to a correctly equalized, replay amplifier. The only thing missing is the tape itself!

The Portico™ 5042 consists of two identical Line Driving amplifiers having transformer balanced inputs and outputs. The sonic quality of these amplifiers is such that, by providing galvanic isolation, simple single-sided circuit topology and freedom from grounding problems they are capable of enhancing the sonic quality of many signal sources, especially those of digital origin. The sonic “signature” is one of extreme purity and the image is consistent with that of Rupert Neve’s original designs of 35 – 40 years ago.

Telefunken TR-350 HiFi Stereo/FM-AM Analog Receiver, 1979-1981, made in Germany

Link: radiomuseum |pytalhost Service Manual | john.ccac.rwth-aachen


General Description
If all you wanted was a simple Hifi receiver in 1979, Telefunken's TR 350 might have been a possible answer. One could call this device a crossing of the TT 350 tuner and the TA 350 amplifier. The tuner section is exactly the same as in the TT 350, even located at the same place in the identical housing, just without the variable FM muting level and exact tuning indicator the TT 350 features (it would be possible to add such an indicator by adding a few missing components on the tuner board). The amplifier section is the well-known Hifi Chassis 1000, also used in the TA 350. The housing doesn't look as empty as for the TT 350, yet there is still plenty of space.
