Elac Alchemy Series PPA-2 Phono Preamplifier
Alchemy performs LP magic.
The Alchemy PPA-2 is a full-featured phono preamp that uses all analog, discrete FET gain and EQ stages to transform microscopic grooves in vinyl into stunningly lifelike music.
The PPA-2 can be tailored to specific cartridge requirements, with switchable gain for each channel, MC cartridge loading, and stereo or mono operation. whilst a selection of RCA or XLR inputs and outputs adds even more flexibility to the most versatile phono preamp in its class.
Product Features:
- Fully discrete, balanced FET topology from input to output
- DC servo-controlled output stage
- Switchable MM or MC gain for each channel
- MC loading continuously adjustable from 5 Ω to 999 Ω
- Precise MC cartridge loading settings for each input can be displayed on the LCD information screen
- Selectable Stereo or Mono operation
- Highly precise RIAA equalisation using 0.1% metal film resistors and selected metalized polypropylene capacitors
- Selectable rumble filter.
- All signal routing through hermetically sealed gold-on-gold relays
