Professional-Ject Audio Programs has introduced three new merchandise: the Tube Field DS3 B dual-mono phono pre-amplifier and the MC Step-Up Field DS3 B and MC Step-Up Field S3 step-up transformers.
The Tube Field DS3 B dual-mono phono pre-amplifier with valve output stage joins the vary as a brand new, premium possibility for balanced turntable connections. Second, two new step-up transformers – a complete new product class for the Austrian firm – be part of the vary within the type of the MC Step-Up Field DS3 B and the MC Step-Up Field S3.
Options of the Tube Field DS3 B embody balanced enter and output choices (alongside unbalanced choices,exact cartridge loading choices through extremely adjustable loading dial on the entrance panel, valve output stage for distinctive sound signature and premium elements and build-quality.
Key options of the MC Step Up Field DS3 B and MC Step Up Field S3 embody sound improve for shifting coil cartridges because of passive amplification system, excessive channel separation for pure stereo integrity, Lundahl LL1678 audio transformer (MC Step Up Field DS3 B solely), balanced enter and output possibility (MC Step Up Field DS3 B solely), premium elements and build-quality.
The Tube Field DS3 B is a complicated phono pre-amplifier for MM and MC cartridges, benefitting from a dual-mono electrical structure, valve output stage and balanced connection choices.
Professional-Ject’s totally adjustable impedance dial on the entrance panel permits for high quality adjustment with shifting coil cartridge programs. The Tube Field DS3 B is the primary so as to add balanced enter and output choices to the combination as a part of Professional-Ject’s True Balanced Connection idea.
