Hegel V10 Phonostage

The Hegel V10 is a cutting-edge phono preamp, built with 30 yrs' experience in discrete transistor circuits. It captures sound exquisitely, for a real, tactile listening experience. The chassis is divided to protect power supplies from the sensitive circuitry, while gold-plated terminals, balanced XLR outputs, and a custom grounding screw provide optimal connection. Low-noise JFET transistors are used in the MM & MC inputs, paralleled for outstandingly silent performance. The amp circuits are similarly silent, powered by linear, low-noise analog AC. Out of the box it's an exceptional MM preamp, yet highly adjustable for any MM/MC cartridge.

 
When using a MM cartridge, you can freely increase the Capacitance between 100 and 467 pF and when using a MC cartridge, the impedance can be set freely between 33 and 550 ohms or fixed at 47 kohm. On both MM and MC, the gain can be increased by 5, 10 or 12 dB, matching the output of your other sources, the V10 even has a Subsonic Filter to remove unwanted low frequency noise. And at the end of the night, when the listening session takes you way past bedtime and you forget to turn off the V10, the adjustable auto standby function does that for you. All this makes the V10 the perfect companion for your vinyl setup. Finding the perfect synergy between your system and your listening preferences. Transporting you into the groove.
