Univox Pa960 Control preset
Verified · 80/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.
The Univox PA-960 Control Head is the amplifier chassis of the PA-960 system, housing the preamp, tone controls, and output stage that drives the companion column speaker cabinet. Its tube circuit provides multiple input channels for microphone and instrument, with separate volume controls per channel and a shared EQ section. The British-influenced topology uses EL34 output tubes for a bold, cutting mid-range presence suited to live vocal reinforcement and instrument amplification. Together with the PA-960 Column, this system represents Univox's attempt to provide a complete British-style stage PA solution for the mid-1960s market.
