'The difference between simply listening to music and experiencing it.'
The highly acclaimed Pulsare II Phono Stage is a two box pre-amp. Beautifully designed both inside and out. Uniquely AVID and undeniably the best available today.
Designed from first principles, Pulsare II is fully balanced throughout, keeping noise exceptionally low. Distortion across the audio spectrum is very low and with an impressive headroom, there's never a feeling of 'running out of steam'.
Employing extremely high-specification components, every attribute is of the highest order. At no point, in the circuit is signal integrity compromised, using a bank of relays for every adjustment. Inputs and outputs are both XLR and RCA, and whilst running fully balanced internally, the output is optionally balanced or unbalanced. Gain, resistance and capacitance are all easily adjustable from the front panel and offer exceptional flexibility.
Pulsare II introduces additional features. A mono facility, subsonic filter and a custom resistance setting, giving the option to precisely tailor resistance values to any given cartridge. Achieved by adding internal RCA plugs fitted with resistor values as required to alter the 47k loading to the desired value.
Pulsare II is available in Silver & Black finishes.
