https://www.decware.com/newsite/ZP3.htm Note: This is a MM phono stage which can't handle low output MC unless you use a SUT. Gain + 42 dB With optional step up transformer + 61dB |
As far as I know NVO and Aesthetix are the only companies producing tube phono stages capable of providing adequate gain for a low output MC phono cartridge without using a SUT or SS gain stage. Aesthetix makes two models. Rhea and Io. The Io is not be in your price range new, but it might be if used. |
