What Soundsmith say
An upgrade in quality does not have to deplete your wallet.
The Soundsmith MMP & MCP preamps are revolutionary designs for their price - and the comments we get at each hi-fi show prove it. These preamps are what they use to demo our cartridges at all their shows- even the high-end cartridge designs.
Each hand-made preamp circuit is housed in a high-quality aluminium case, powered by an external DC power supply, with easy to set up instructions. All amplifiers have extremely accurate RIAA equalization response.
The MMP4 is a more cost-effective way to enjoy your high output MC, MM or MI cartridge. Its design is based on Soundsmith's highly praised MMP3, and the specs and sonics make it a great value. It features 47K loading and 43 dB of gain.
Employing very high-quality components, the MMP4 assures noise-free and ultra-low distortion to allow unfettered enjoyment from your treasured vinyl collection. The MMP4 and MMP3 have been favourably demonstrated against preamps costing $2000 - $4000 with surprising results... and compliments to Soundsmith.
