The Audion Premier Moving Coil step up is hard
wired point to point and hand built. The chassis is black powder coated
aluminium as is the transformer cover. The top plate and badge are
mirror finished stainless steel. The Audion Moving coil step up is an active
class A devices, with power supplies, that amplify the tiny voltage
from moving coil cartridges so that it approximates the normal voltage
from a moving magnet cartridge. You will need our Moving Magnet phono
to further amplify and then equalize the signal. This MC step-up has
been especially designed for the lowest output cartridges available on
the market today!!! Now using the same advanced proprietary circuitry
as our world class Quattro. Being a transformer less design it offers
superb speed and resolution. This unit does need to be connected to a
phono stage as well.
The soundstage is phenomenally large. Roll off in both
directions is seamless. Resolution is astounding, with absolutely
convincing depth even at very low levels. It brings recording to life
and places you directly in front of the performance
Amplifier matching
This moving coil step-up is best paired with standard or
low output moving coil cartridges. The phono MC step-up is easily matched with most
cartridges and being an active stage it does not need such close
matching as you would with a transformer based product. Upgrade options
are available for this model, see upgrade options at end. Can and has
been made in hard wired mono_blocks
Quality both inside and out
The MC step up is an active class A stage using a
transformer less design, which means matching is very easy. It is far
less critical of capacitance, resistance, impedance, inductance or
reactance matching that transformer coupled MC step-ups normally
require.
The Phono MC step up uses NOS Russian 6H23N tubes, it also
has a ground lift switch at the rear to assist in resolving grounding
issues by floating the ground internally above mains ground. We
