The Simaudio Moon 310LP phono preamplifier represents a significant advancement in the design of audio preamplifiers. Special attention has been paid to the noise level and dynamic range, making the 310LP one of the quietest preamplifiers of similar level ever produced, surpassing even more expensive models in performance. In terms of sound characteristics, it meets all the criteria of Simaudio: clean, powerful, stable, and extended bass combined with open midrange and detailed high frequencies.
Features:
- Large isolated power supply on a separate circuit board with two-stage voltage regulation.
- User-adjustable load resistance (10, 100, 470, 1k, and 47k ohms).
- User-adjustable capacitive load (0, 100, and 470 pF).
- User-adjustable gain settings for moving magnet cartridge (40 dB) and moving coil cartridge (54, 60, and 66 dB).
- Selectable equalizer curves according to the standards of the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
- Customizable external power supply modification available upon request.
- Unbalanced RCA and balanced XLR outputs.
- Four-layer printed circuit board layout with separate copper grounding and power paths for reduced impedance.
- Power supply voltage regulation includes Evolution Series i2DCf (Independent Inductive DC Filtering).
- Shortened signal path for faster dynamic response.
- Precise matching of the highest quality electronic components.
- Low operating temperature for extended lifespan.
One of the advantages of the 310LP is its significant flexibility in terms of user-adjustable load parameters - resistance, capacitance, and gain.
Balanced outputs open up possibilities for connecting to a balanced preamplifier and significantly improve noise level, dynamics, and midrange transparency. Unlike competitive models using mass production technologies or primarily metal-cased microchips, the 310LP is housed in a custom-built sturdy case with a polished and anodized front panel measuring 3/8 of an inch.
Package includes:
- Phono preamplifier.
- Power cable.
- 5/64 size key.
- Manual.
