The Masterpiece Phono stage uses an existing incredible design and applies the same level of component, internal wiring, tube  and connector upgrades which only applies to the Masterpiece collection for the connoisseurs of high end hifi.

Both the Masterpiece Pre-amplifier and Phono stage use simple signal path topology where every signal component is chosen for its absolute quality and construction. Internal wiring uses the same ultra high purity silver wire as used in the Ref interconnect cables. Signal capacitors are replaced with V-caps CuTF Reference grade units or equivalent and resistors from Kiwane of Japan.

Gold  plated connectors and power inlet socket from Viborg are standard. Power supply capacitors are chosen for their ultra low ESR and ESL to provide ultimate power supply delivery.  All pcb’s, transformer and SUT’s are mounted on Panzerholtz for micro vibration absorption and dissipation. Vacuum tubes are also dampened.

Masterpiece Edition Phonostage features :

• Kiwame resistors in the critical signal path for low noise and a more natural sound.
• V-Cap CuTF  signal path capacitors or equivalent.
• Lundahl MC step up transformers (SUT) using amorphous cobalt core and dual coil structure with Cardas high purity wire.
• Silver internal wiring and Gold plated RCA connectors
• Toroidal transformers with B+ regulators for low PSRR figures.
• High amplification, super accurate RIAA EQ , low output impedance and low distortion.
•  Full exotic hardwood and copper top plate available
• Optional Carbide Audio isolation feet

All cabinet construction is made with exotic hardwoods and dampened Aluminium chassis. Bespoke options are available for full hardwood and copper top plate. 

Available with built in Lundahl amorphous core SUT’s for MC cartridges or as a seperate custom built SUT in Bolivian rosewood or other exotic hardwood.
