It is the ideal partner to ATC’s high-end active loudspeakers and also power amplifiers, such as the ATC P2.  Balanced and unbalanced inputs and outputs provide flexible connectivity to a very wide range of partnering equipment.  The optional phono stage is fully configurable for both gain, resistive and capacitive loading and its low-noise design makes it well suited to even the lowest output moving coil cartridges.

Features 

  • Discrete class-A low-noise circuitry throughout.
  • High-current output stages ensure exceptionally low distortion into any load & when driving long cables.
  • 500kHz bandwidth eliminates phase shift and contributes to the outstanding reproduction of fine musical detail.
  • Optional SPH2 MC/MM RIAA precision phono stage with extensive gain/loading options.
  • 2 x stereo balanced XLR line inputs & 6 x stereo RCA/Phono line inputs.
  • 1 x stereo balanced XLR & 1 x stereo single-ended RCA/Phono preamp output.
