Overview
Clearaudio designed their Balanced Reference Phonostage to establish a true reference status. Rest assured in the inherent quality of the parts they use, totally separated massive cases, fully symmetrical design of the circuit layouts and power supplies, highlighted by a stepped attenuated regulation, designed to drive your power amp directly in 3dB steps. You deserve the best, a true Balanced Reference Phonostage: • clearaudio non-magnetic MPC RCA-plugs for unbalanced in / outputs • NEUTRIK-XLR connectors for balanced in / outputs • 5-pole BINDER-connectors for balanced inputs • Capacity / impedance loading for your individual purpose • Pure silver German made ‘glimmer-caps’ • Non-magnetic resistors by Vishay and Dale to clearaudio´s specification.
