Extremely rare sut made in England for highend step up MC cartridge. Wonderful sound. From my highend collection. The AN-S2 is a passive device, designed to convert the mainly current output of your Moving Coil cartridge (MC) to a higher voltage, low current signal of sufficient strength to allow a Moving Magnet (MM) phono stage to amplify it to a suitable level. The internal transformers used in the AN-S2 are manufactured by Audio Note (UK) exclusively, use the very best core materials and winding technology available at the price, and are housed in mumetal screening canisters to minimise noise and interference. The AN-S2 can be supplied in two versions; the AN-S2/L (low impedance) and the AN-S2/H (high impedance). The ‘L’ version has a switchable input impedance of 3 Ohms and 12 Ohms; the ‘H’ version, 15 Ohms and 60 Ohms. The 3 Ohm input of the ‘L’ version has been primarily designed to partner the Audio Note IO Moving Coil cartridges, and the 12 Ohm input is intended to be used with cartridges with an internal impedance of around 3 to 4 Ohms. The 15 Ohm input of the ‘H’ version is designed to partner cartridges with an internal impedance of around 4 to 5 Ohms; the 60 Ohm input is designed for cartridges with internal impedance in the region of 15 to 20 Ohms. It is possible to use our transformers with cartridges that have greater internal impedances, or values that are outside the preferred ranges of the switchable inputs, however, it is important to realise that an input impedance in the region of three to four times the internal impedance of your cartridge will usually provide the best results.

For sale is my Audio Note S2 step-up transformer to allow you to use an MC cartridge with a MM phono stage. When I was looking for an expensive MC phono stage I did a lot of research about alternatives and tried a lot of different kit. If you have never heard a SUT with a valve MM phono stage you don’t know what you are missing, you will never buy a MC phono stage again, it’s a completely different world of performance. And of course Audio Note is the pinnacle. This SUT is switchable between two settings to give a wide range of cartridge compatibility. I’ve used with a Hana ML, Hana Urishi and Kotsu Black which are all a perfect match. There are loads of other cartridges that work with this SUT, the Low version is really just for the Audio Note IO and some unusual cartridges so the version I’m selling (medium – high) is the one to get. The 15 Ohm switch (Low) of the ‘M-H’ version is designed to partner cartridges with an internal impedance of around 4 to 5 OhmsThe 60 Ohm switch (high) is designed for cartridges with internal impedance in the region of 15 to 20 Ohms. I tried a few other SUT’s in the price range I’m selling this for and none came come even close to the AN. Only selling because I moved to the AN IO cartridge and an AN-S4. Don’t forget if you want one there is a wait of months as AN build everything by hand to order. It really is as new, not a mark on it. I have the original packaging. More details can be found here: AN-S2 | Audio Note (UK) Please see my feedback and bid with confidence. Any questions at all please reach out and kindly have a look at my other auctions.
