From manufacturer:
The Phono Amp-System is a complete phono riaa with all tubes preamplifier that operate on class A without any local or total feedback circuity. This preamplifier provide the right amplification and equalization to the riaa standard at the phono moving magnet and moving coil cartridge signal. The circuity use five tubes as ECC 88/6922 for moving coil and two ECC-81/12AT7 for moving magnet (as passive riaa equalization) and one ECC-81/12AT7 for output as cathode follower adaptor, all tubes are accurate selected at very low noise operation. A innovative circuity designed from engineer of Lector make the control of the bias by optical devices and a special circuity control the cathode operation at very low noise the moving coil inputs device. It's possible to change the input resistance of MC cartridge by external RCA- resistor plug for to have better interface between cartridge and input tube.
We supply four pair off plug-resistor set as per value off: 30 ohm (Blue plug) 100 ohm (Black plug) 470 ohm (Green plug) and 1000 ohm (Yellow plug). With this PLUG-RESISTOR you can optimize the right resistance value of your MC cartridge.
The exceptional signal to noise ratio togheter a hi-gain operation allow to overtaking the limitation of transformer step-up (distorsion and frequency response limits).
