Soundsmith MMP3 MKII High-End Low-Noise MM Phono Preamplifier

Description

** Newly Updated and Improved! **

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 we use to demo our cartridges at all our shows even our
high end cartridge designs –

Each hand – made preamp circuit is housed in a high quality
aluminum case, powered by an external DC power supply, with easy to set up
instructions. All amplifiers have extremely accurate RIAA equalization
response.

** Our “Fixed Coil” Moving Iron cartridges are
best with 42- 44 dB gain preamps; most moving magnet and moving Iron cartridges
will work well with our 43dB gain preamps, however, for VERY HIGH output
cartridges (4.5mV or higher) we offer a 34dB gain preamps as an option ~
THD measurements 1kHz, ~0.004%

24 volt power supply included [US standard 120 volt];
optional European (schuko) 230 volt AC to 24 volt DC transformer
