The PH100 phono preamp is an external module with a specific power supply consisting of 2 high-end transformers (one per channel) with very low noise and 4 voltage regulators. The assembly is shielded by a metal box to preserve any interference on the audio stages. It is entirely made of discrete components and does not include any link capacitors. The configurations (MM/MC, input impedance) are directly accessible from the rear of the chassis.
- 4 mm brushed aluminium front.
- 2 very low noise linear transformers 3,2 VA each.
- 4 regulated power supplies.
- Total capacitance: 11,280 µF.
- Input impedance: 47 k or 100 k (*).
- Input capacitance: 100 pF or nothing (*).
- MM gain: 40 dB (*).
- High-level MC gain: 47 dB (*).
- Low level MC gain: 60 dB (*).
- Signal/Noise Ratio at 1 kHz: 80 dB.
- Crosstalk at 1 kHz: < -85 dB.
- Frequency response (20 Hz -20 kHz): <0.1 dB.
- THD: 0.05%.
(*) Depending on the switch position.
