STOP PRESS, First Review of the Long Dog Audio MCJ3 phono preamplifier stage. “No Dog in a Manger”
Low noise jfet hybrid front end combining low noise of silicon with sonics of valves allows the use of moving coil cartridges without the need for a step up transformer.
Tacman resistors, Mundorf and Clarity Cap capicitors used in audio circuit.
0.1% resistors and selected 1% capacitors used in RIAA filter.
Dual shunt high voltage regulation used in the power supply (design copied from high end products)
Input loading adjustable with rear panel selector (uses high quality switch instead of the poor DIL switched normally used)
Custom UK wound toroidal transformer.
Valve lineup, Two off E88CC, One off ECC82.
Internally settable for 230v and 115v areas.
Non ferrous casework.
High quality RCA sockets.

Clearaudio Balance V2 MM/MC Phono Preamplifier
Clearaudio Nano V2 Headphone MM/MC Phono Preamplifier – Black
The nano phono headphone V2 additionally contains a powerful headphone amplifier within the solid aluminium housing for private listening at the highest fidelity.
The Nano phono stage isn't ruffled by anything. External interferences are no longer an issue with this fine piece of engineering.
Its meticulously selected SMD components are assembled by hand in Erlangen and tested several times. The reward of these efforts is a signal to noise ratio of up to 84 decibels. The input impedance is set using plug-in links, so there is no loss of quality when using different moving magnet and moving coil cartridges.

Clearaudio Smart V2 MM/MC Phono Preamplifier – Black
A light 620-gram phonostage that seduced the worldwide audio press. The only thing that is 'entry level' about this product is its price.
A minimalist aluminium housing that contains one of the best sounding phonostages in its market. Up to 54 decibels gain at one kilohertz and an extremely linear frequency response deliver unprecedented quality at this price point.
For MM and MC cartridges there are two separate circuit designs using SMD technology, which are selected by a slide switch on the underside.
