Simaudio MOON 110LP v2 Phono Preamplifier

Simaudio MOON 110LP v2 phono preamplifier

Sound quality

Based on technologies familiar from our award-winning and advanced phono preamplifiers, the MOON 110LP v2 represents another leap forward in both sound quality and achievable price.

Dynamic

Enjoy all the hallmarks of MOON sound now at a more affordable price than ever before: fast, crisp and extended bass response, a natural and open midrange, and airy and extended high frequencies. This has been achieved by a combination of an improved power supply and an even more advanced circuit layout. An additional benefit is the increased input overload margin, which ensures undisturbed and carefree use.

Practical and flexible

In just a few seconds, you can adjust four key settings from the bottom of the device: gain, equalization curve, load resistance and capacitance. Thanks to this, changing cartridges will not make the MOON 110LP v2 obsolete, but it will adapt effortlessly to new requirements.

Construction and features

• User-adjustable load impedance (47 kΩ, 475 Ω, 100 Ω, 10 Ω)
• User-adjustable load capacitance (0 pF, 100 pF, 330 pF, 430 pF)
• User-adjustable gain settings for MM and MC cartridges (40 dB, 50 dB, 54 dB, 60 dB, 66 dB)
• User-selectable equalization curve (IEC / RIAA)
• Four-layer circuit board with pure copper for low impedance
• Inductive DC filtering for significantly lower noise level
• Compact and rigid full aluminum chassis and gold-plated RCA connectors
