Up for sale its a SUPERB condition clearaudio Balanced Reference Phono stage. The unit its only 3.5 years old and comes with EXTRA XLR dust cap covers, as you see from pictures 4,9, and 11 from the back side. Retail price for this is 5680 EUROS Clearaudios passion for excellence has kept us going through years of tireless research to realise the full potential of this outstanding component.The totally separated and massively engineered cases contain the fully symmetrically designed circuit layouts and power supplies. For this flagship product no compromise is made, we use the very best parts currently available, highlighted by stepped attenuated regulation; designed to drive a power amplifier directly in 3dB steps. A dual-mono pre-stage with a reference claim can only be created by those who translate tireless research and years of experience into a technology that is sophisticated down to the last detail. With this preamplifier, the left and right channels work completely separately from each other: Each channel lives in its own housing from its own power supply. This eliminates any crosstalk between the two channels from the outset, resulting in unrivaled spatial representation during playback. The input impedance and the load capacity can be adapted externally to any requirements and wishes using a connector.The outsourced power supply unit is also symmetrical and, thanks to its generous dimensions, offers an absolutely constant power supply. A step switch regulates the gain from 30 to 63 dB in 3 dB steps. The output stages can be controlled directly. But we offer you even more: unbalanced inputs and outputs with cinch sockets, two balanced inputs with XLR connectors and 5-pin binder connectors as wellSpecifications:Power supply: Dual-power supply with four separate voltages per channel 115/230 V switchableSignal to noise ratio: 95 dB(A) at G = 40 dB; 75 dB(A) at G = 60 dBGain (@ 1 kHz): Adjustable from 30 - 63 dB in 3 dB stepsMax. output voltage: 11 VrmsDistortion: < 0,001%Input impedance: Variable up to 100 kOhmOutput impedance: 50 OhmEqualisation: RIAA maximum deviation: 0.05 dBFrequency response: 10 Hz - 100 kHz - 0.1 dBInputs: Power supply input: 9-pole SUB-DUnbalanced RCABalanced XLR or 5-pole Binder connectionOutputs:Unbalanced RCABalanced XLRSignal to noise ratio: >80 dB (MC)Weight:Approx. 3.6 kg (phonostage)Approx. 3.4 kg (power supply)Dimensions (W/D/H in inches):Approx. 15 x 8.7 x 2.3 (phonostage)Approx. 2.7 x 8.7 x 10.6 (power supply)
