Overview

A minimalist aluminum case that contains one of the best phono stages in its market. Up to 54 decibels of gain at one kilohertz and an extremely linear frequency response offer unprecedented quality at this price point. For MM and MC cartridges, there are two separate circuit designs using SMD technology, which are selected by a slide switch on the underside.

The smart phono V2 headphone also contains a powerful headphone amplifier in the solid aluminum housing for private listening with the highest fidelity.
