Description

The M3x Vinyl is a fully discrete phono stage with no op amps in the signal path and a split, semi passive RIAA equalization network without global negative feedback. It accepts moving magnet and moving coil cartridges, with adjustable loading and capacitance plus a 6 dB gain boost. The toroidal transformer is mounted away from the amplifier circuits to keep hum and noise down.
