Vinius TVC-05 review by High Fidelity Magazine

The tested Vinius audio preamp maintains the internal consistency of sound, opens up the treble and deepens the bass, while remaining perfectly dynamic.

Vinius TVC-05 earned Best Product of 2022 from High Fidelity. 

The TVC-05 SPECIAL EDITION is a passive preamplifier from VINIUS AUDIO. There are no active elements in its signal path, but only passive signal attenuation elements. In this case, these are transformers, hence the "High Performance Magnetic Volume Control" slogan in the company logo. The Special Edition version of the device tested by us is extremely minimalistic – it has one RCA input, one RCA output and a volume knob. It requires no power supply and has no remote control.

The Vinius audio brand was set up three years ago and was founded, quoting its head and designer, "to produce audio equipment of the highest quality". The brand is owned and manufactured by Proyze. It is a one-man company, dealing with specialist design and production of audio devices. It belongs to Mr. ZDZISŁAW EJSMONT, who is also the owner of the Vinius audio brand. As he declares, its only goal is to provide audiophiles with the best possible "volume control".

It is, of course, a component that is called an 'attenuator' in technology. However, since this word has a bad connotation in the audio industry, the company uses the above term, i.e. "volume control". As Mr. Ejsmont wrote in an email, this is because: "our whole philosophy is to get away from attenuating anything".
