The rear panel includes separate main and record output connectors, as well as two Link communica- tion ports that make it possible for the Nº326S to be included in Mark Levinson Link systems.

A large front panel “select” knob provides quick selection of the desired input. When an input is selected, just press and hold the front panel or remote control setup button to open the correspon- ding Set Inputs menu, which can be used to select a custom name, optimize gain levels, set a master volume level offset, or assign record output connec- tors to individual inputs.
Following in the footsteps of the Nº32, the Nº326S exceeds all reasonable expectations for a stereo preamplifier. Its flexible design, including seven configurable inputs, separate main and record outputs, and full surround sound processor integra- tion, allow it to accommodate a wide range of demands. All this, plus the addition of an Arlon 25 main circuit board, create a preamp that is equally at home in a dedicated
