Moving Coil & Moving Magnet Phono Preamp

Squeeze every inch of detail from your record collection with our highest quality moving magnet and moving coil phono stage, with integrated headphone amp; the Duo Phono Preamplifier.

Vinyl as it's Supposed to Sound
Whether you’re dusting off your record collection or embracing analogue through the vinyl revival, there’s a unique experience to be had from the moment you drop the needle on your favourite album. To preserve the unique warmth of the vinyl sound, the Duo phono preamplifier has been carefully designed with a state-of-the-art switch mode power supply and a new surface mounted circuit board layout to reduce unwanted noise.

Why Choose a Dedicated Phono Preamplifier?
Due to the low-level signals created by a turntable, not all hi-fi amplifiers will let you connect directly to a record player. The phono preamplifier boosts this signal to something a power amplifier can work with. The challenge at this stage though is that noise can easily be added.
This is why we’ve designed the Duo around exceptional components that deliver the warm and detailed sound that’s synonymous with vinyl, all without distorting the signal from your moving magnet cartridge turntable. The switch mode power supply improves performance by switching outside of audible frequency to drastically reduce hum and new circuit board layout uses surface-mount components to reduce noise.

Vinyl. Just for You
Enjoy the warmth of vinyl privately thanks to Duo’s integrated headphone output. Uniquely, we integrated a 6.35mm headphone jack directly into the phono stage, so you can still enjoy your records when there’s no option to play out loud.
The integrated headphone output also means no need to turn on your amplifier just to power your headphones, resulting in a more eco-friendly listening experience.

Attention to Detail
If some records in your collection are a little worse for wear, the subsonic filter will help to eliminate low frequency rumbles that can be caused by imperfections within your vinyl. Combine this with the balance control for handling potential cartridge imbalances in your record player (that can cause a difference between the left and right channels) and the result is a detailed experience with accurate soundstage.

Eco Friendly
The Duo phono preamplifier is green at heart with less than half a watt standby power consumption and auto power down feature if the unit isn’t used after a 20 minute period. This in turn gives the unit the same worldwide voltage for compatibility wherever you are in the world.

Equipment base

Ground it E is a stable and height-adjustable platform for turntables, that will reduce negative effects of potential surface vib-rations significantly. The use of Ground it E is very simple: Do not place your turntable directly on surfaces such as furniture or shelves that may be vibration sensitive, but place it on Ground it equipment bases. All Ground it bases will improve the sonic performance, so a pleasant, natural reproduction of vinyl music will be possible. The playback quality of a turntable placed on Ground it E will benefit because of improved dynamics and coherent timing. The ambient acoustic of the recording venue will sound much clearer and contoured, so music playback appears to be more realistic, authentic and expressive.

Support weight for mass drives

The weight made of stainless steel ensures a better contact between the record and the platter. This suppresses mechanical resonances, which greatly improves the scannability of the microgroove. As a result, your music becomes more detailed, has a clearer resolution and a better defined bass. The ergonomic shape ensures easy handling when placing the weight on the record. It is not necessary to screw it onto the plate mandrel. The contact weight is a little over 500 grams.

Details and technical data:
• Precisely processed by CNC milling
• Avoidance of disruptive resonances, which have a negative effect on the scanning by your pickup
• Made of solid stainless steel for the perfect combination of weight (a little more than 500 grams) and size
• Ergonomic shape for easy handling
• Diameter: 73 mm
• Height: 22mm
• Diameter of the hole for the plate mandrel: 7.5 mm
• Made in Japan

Heavy weight record puck

This heavy Record Puck ensures a firm fit between the record and the platter surface.

Record pucks use weight to secure a playing vinyl record against the turntable platter. By holding the two together, the sound performance of the turntable will improve, in timing and depth of sound.

We recommend using heavy weight clamps on RPM, Signature & Xtension series turntables.

The alternative way to achieve this effect on smaller turntables is our record clamp Clamp it.

Features:
• Reduces unwanted vibrations
• Helps with optimum playback of warped records

Technical Specifications:
• Material: Brass

The number 1 turntable weight used by Dj's in the world!

MasterSounds x HHV turntable weights are carefully designed to reduce a turntable’s noise floor and thus improve the musical soundstage. Users enjoy improved bass response, tighter mids and controlled highs as the turntable weight reduces unwanted resonance when placed via the spindle on top of a record. MasterSounds x HHV turntable weights weigh just over 400 grams (+/- 14oz), light enough to not cause damage to a turntable’s bearing system, but heavy enough to give sonic improvement.

MasterSounds x HHV weights have been tested on a large variety of non-suspended belt drive and direct drive turntables with great success. Pressing plants try to achieve quality control on every record made, however there are intrinsic issues such as dished and warped records. MasterSounds x HHV turntable weights help to combat this too. DJs love this; as it aids cueing a problematic a record prior to mixing and eliminates needle skip.

It was developed an anti-slip base for MasterSounds x HHV weights, and thus each turntable weight has been designed to grip the record, which is fantastic for DJ’ing as it really stabilises records in the mix. Use MasterSounds x HHV turntable weights for a couple of weeks then remove to realise what a difference they make!

Stroboscope disc

Control of turntable speed.

Strobe it shows circular arranged dashes that are assigned to speed and frequency. Please remember the ring that matches your desired speed and frequency (33 1/3 rpm with 50 Hz and 45 rpm with 50 Hz are valid for Europe). Put Strobe it on the turntable platter and start the turntable. The tonearm remains in its initial position. Align a mains powered light source directly to the turntable with Strobe it rotating. The dashes of the previously pinned ring should now give the impression to stand still. If they seem to move slightly forward or backwards, the speed is either too high or too low. Please note: Use normal mains operated lamps. Daylight, fluorescent lamps (energy saving lamps) as well as flashlights and LEDs, which are operated with direct current, are not suitable.

High-tech lubricant for constant velocity

How to use Lube it:
A turntable is a delicate instrument and needs proper care. The motor is moving the platter and the bearing‘s lubrication is being worn off over time. This is caused by many factors, such as climate and humidity. Therefore we cannot give a recommended time as to when to replace the lubrication. Best is to keep it constantly lubricated. With Lube it you can keep the bearing of your turntable smooth for a perfect playback. We recommend to keep your turntable constantly moving, as this guarantees a smooth bearing. This however will lead to metal abrasion, so you will need to change the lubrication more often. As to how much you should use, we can only advise to use the amount you feel right. It can‘t be too much, worst case scenario is you will have to clean some lube off your turntable to keep it looking clean.

Please only use Lube it for turntables like Elemental, Primary, T-Line, Essential, Debut, The Classic, Juke Box & X1/X2.
For inverted bearings like RPM Line, Xtension models and Signature Line please use Grease it.

Features:
• Helps a smooth movement
• Easy handling

Amount: 5 ml
