The ’Loudness’ filter on all old vintage receivers solved the problem of listening at low volumes.
Note: ’Loudness’ is a stupid name, it should have been called Low Volume Boost, or something more descriptive.
Modern equipment skips the feature, a darn shame.

Proper way to use it:
1. You set it’s volume at it’s default volume setting (no loudness engaged). Unplug/Plug it in). Leave it alone while you do step 2.
2. you use your preamp, integrated amp to set your default ’normal volume’ leave it alone.
3. Now use only the RLC-1 to boost or cut volume.
4. Lowering volume via RLC-1 will begin implementing the ’Loudness’ Curve. As you lower volume further with RLC-1, it progressively engages the Fletcher Munson curve.
here’s one New In Box.
