X-LPSV3 MC/MM Phono Stage
The circuitry
in the X-LPSV3 is similar to that used in expensive
electronics. The RIAA is very accurate, the noise ratio is excellent and
overload margins are good. Generally, its technical performance on both MM
and MC is equal to some highly expensive stand-alone phono stages.
Subjectives are personal, but we think that the X-LPSV3 will
stand comparison with the best. It doesn't have a high price tag so many
will not even look or listen to this little marvel. Forget the price and
listen to the music.
| Separate dedicated MM
and MC inputs. |
Allows use of either
cartridge type for the best possible results. |
| Wide overload margin. |
Extended headroom allows
effortless handling of transients and dynamics. |
| Sophisticated PCB
layout, with very close attention given to optimising circuit
layout, the result of 30 years' experience with phono. |
Low noise, low distortion
and accurate RIAA gives a dynamic crystalline sound. |
| Very low noise
circuits. |
Maximum available dynamic
range and low level detail resolution. |
