    Even if the input stage of the R-501 could accept input signals up to +20 dBu, a special protection circuit limits the input level at +12 dBu in order to prevent any damage. The R- 501 extended input dynamic range avoids the necessity of the input pad and the gain is controlled by a single large knob.
