Vincent PHO-500 is a phono stage designed for connecting a turntable to the line input of an amplifier. It has a low noise level and is suitable for MM and MC cartridges. An external power supply is used to reduce interference.
Features:
- Frequency range: 10 Hz - 20 kHz +/- 0.5 dB, 10 Hz - 50 kHz (±2 dB)
- Signal-to-noise ratio, dB: MM: > 83 dB, MC: > 70 dB
- Total harmonic distortion: < 0.05%
- Input sensitivity: MM: 58 mV, MC: 6.8 m
A good phono stage should apply RIAA correction to the recording on one hand, and transmit the signal to your system with minimal distortion on the other. The Vincent PHO-500 phono stage is designed precisely for this purpose.
One of the main reasons for its low-noise operation is the power supply. In the Vincent PHO-500, a special power supply is housed in a separate enclosure to ensure that electromagnetic fields do not affect the phono stage. High-quality components from well-known manufacturers (such as WIMA and Nichicon) also guarantee excellent signal-to-noise ratio and high dynamics. Input capacitance and input impedance can be adjusted, ensuring optimal compatibility with almost any cartridge (MM or MC).
A notable feature of the device is the USB output, which functions as an analog-to-digital converter. This means that you can easily digitize your vinyl collection with a maximum bitrate of 24-bit/192 kHz.
