Sculpture A – Mini Nano Step-Up

790

Our line of Mini Nano Step-up offers :

  • 99.99% copper winding
  • Toroidal nano-cristalline core
  • 20 Hz – 60 kHz +/- 0.5 dB
  • Various ratio : 1:5 / 1:10 / 1:15 / 1:20 / 1:26 / 1:30 / 1:40

It is not because our MM phonostage is “mini” that it should still not match our strict electronic pedigree. The Mini Discrete Phono  is thus :

  • 100% discrete electronic components
  • Class A operation without feedback using 2 J-Fet SK880 per channel
  • Passive RIAA equalization with +/- 0.1 dB deviation
  • 40 dB gain
  • No dip switch
  • External power supply
  • The perfect companion of our line of Mini Nano Step-Ups

As a result our Mini Discrete Phono provides a perfectly balanced bandwidth, low background noise and is phase coherent. No options available but a full respect of the integrity of the signal produced by your cartridge limiting signal loss and thus allowing the music be reproduced as close as possible to the original signal.

What about MC cartridges ? Yes we could have added another level of amplification and dip switches to allow impedance matching but we opted for something else. The Mini Discrete Phono has been thought as a neutral and balanced amplification stage allowing matching Mini Nano Step-Ups to perform at there best level thus providing ideal chain of amplification for your precious MC cartridge with a minimum number of electronic components and no switch in the line of the signal.

A unique solution that will allow you to move from MM cartridges to MC cartridges whenever you feel the need for it.
