BP2 MM/MC-20 (Requires PS3)

259,500.00

 

Phono gain stages are rather un-glamorous. But that’s the point. This one trick pony simply accepts analog audio from your turntable’s cartridge and amplifies it to a level that your main preamplifier can understand. What makes the BP-2 so special is that it can take such a minuscule signal–2mV or so and amplify it with so little distortion and so little added noise. When switched into MC mode, zero additional noise is added. The transformers are wound so precisely, they are virtually distortion free making the most of your priceless MC cartridge. This is true analog bliss.
