Rogue Audio RP-5 v2 Preamplifier (Black)

Description

The RP-5 was the first preamplifier based on our
groundbreaking new RP-X platform. Now the RP-5 v2 builds upon that award
winning heritage with world-class technology borrowed from the RP-7, RP-9,
RH-5, and Triton II. The new RP-5 v2 improves both sound quality and overall
performance well beyond that of the original.

The new volume control circuit now has the same refinement
as the RP-7 and RP-9 with 0.5dB steps for more precise control and a lower
noise floor. The headphone circuit incorporates technology from the RH-5, and
with both improved sound and power, it will get the best performance from even
the most difficult to drive headphones.

The phono stage in the RP-5 v2 is now directly derived from
our Triton II dedicated phono preamp. The RP-5 v2’s new phono circuit is
quieter, better sounding, and has higher gain than its predecessor. With four
different user adjustable levels of gain ranging from 43dB to 65dB you can
easily accommodate virtually any cartridge. A wide variety of loading options
means your favorite cartridge can be precisely configured to sound its very
best.

Other features include a home theater bypass, processor
loop, and mono function. The ten button remote allows you to conveniently
access volume, balance, selector, mute, mono and on/off from your listening
position.

The display of the RP-5 v2 has also been upgraded to an
easy-to-read and defeatable OLED display with improved contrast. The soft blue
display provides volume, balance and source information in large easy to read
characters.
