Phono Preamplifier

The PH-10 is Gold Note's entry-level phono stage, but it is still a unique and versatile piece of kit. It is extremely user-friendly, with nine different loads options (10Ω, 22Ω, 47Ω, 100Ω, 220Ω, 470Ω, 1000Ω, 22kΩ, 47kΩ) and 3 different EQ curves to allow you to get the very best sound from all of your vinyl records. Like every Gold Note product, the PH-10 comprises of components exclusively sourced and assembled in Italy.

The new Limetree PHONO II from Lindemann Audio takes the highly-rated and awarded Limetree PHONO and further improves the internal circuitry for improved performance, especially when connected to an MC pickup. An added benefit for MC users is the customisable load impedance settings with the following values; 50R, 66R, 80R, 100R, 200R & 400R.

Newly unveiled by Chord Electronics, Huei is a multi-cartridge compatible phono stage in the compact Qutest chassis. Keeping with Chord Electronic's usual high standards of design and manufacture, Huei offers support for a wide range of cartridges due to its capability of switching between Moving Magnet/Moving Coil cartridges, alongside various gain and impedance options selectable via the easily accessible front controls.

The MOON 110LP v2 simplifies high-quality analogue playback. Derived from technologies found in its big brother 310LP, the MOON 110LP v2 represents another leap forward in an affordable phono preamplifier.

The finest mid-priced phono preamplifier just got even better. The 310LP elevates the performance of its highly acclaimed predecessor to another level.

The MOON 390 is a multi-function crossover type product that has the function of a modern network player, DAC, preamplifier, headphone amplifier, and phono stage. Roughly, it combines the feature set of both older model 350P and 380D and adds further. Another point of view: it can be seen as an All-in-One without a power amplifier. Still, it will be pricier than Moon's All-in-One ACE as it is of a higher pedigree and higher performance level. The 390 was the first new product to benefit from MiND 2 streamer technology.

Please note, the listed price of £6,150 is for the version that does not feature HDMI ports. The version with HDMI ports retails at £6,900.

The MMP4 MKII is Soundsmith's entry-level phono preamplifier, but it certainly does not sacrifice on performance.

Featuring shielded transformers to deliver ultra-low distortion and negligible noise, the MCP2 also allows the user to seamlessly adjust the loading from 10 Ohms all the way up to 5k Ohms ensuring compatibility with any low-output design. Each MCP2 is handmade by Soundsmith engineers in upstate New York.

Featuring a dual-mono, fully balanced differential circuit layout, the MOON 610LP is a purist design heavily based on the reference grade MOON 810LP. Since one of Simaudio’s strengths is “Research & Development”, they have the ability to create a reference grade product and then, a short time later, offer a more accessible model which encapsulates most of the technology and performance of the reference.

A true purist design that is destined to become the new reference for analogue playback. Astonishing analogue reproduction combined with unsurpassed flexibility! With the MOON 810LP, Simaudio envisioned a design with absolutely no restrictions; the ultimate goal is to transport all of the emotion from the artist, from the recording studio to your living room.

The Gold Note PH-1000 is the perfect product for anyone looking for an innovative and high quality phono stage. With its class A discrete components, infinite EQ curves, and optional class A line preamp, it offers unparalleled sound quality that you won't find in any other phono stage.
