Pro-Ject MC Step-Up Box S3 Passive Step-Up Transformer Silver

Description: Pro-Ject MC Step-Up Box S3 Passive Step-Up Transformer SilverA Sound Upgrade For Your Mc CartridgeThe output level of MC cartridges is very low, compared to a MM (Moving Magnet) one it is about 10x lower, which means, you need a special phono amplifier. A higher gain is needed to utilize the signals, which can result in a higher noise level and distortion. The Pro-Ject MC Step Up Box S3 is the solution.Lively, Dynamic, And NaturalThe MC Step Up Box S3 works very differently compared to a phono preamplifier. The windings ratio of the transformer determines the gain factor. As it works completely passive and no external power is needed, no extra power can be produced. The increase in voltage is achieved by a corresponding decrease is current.As there is no amplification, the MC Step Up Box S3 has a remarkable noise performance and a very low level of distortion. The sound with a step-up transformer will be more lively, dynamic, and natural.A cartridge impedance matching button on the back allow two different settings (10-40Ω and 40-150Ω).Premium RCA TerminalsThe MC Step Up Box S3 has gold plated input and output RCA terminals for optimum signal transmission. It also boasts a solid full aluminum housing. Due to the timeless design and rigid aluminum casework, the MC Step Up Box S3 is built for eternity.Features: Completely passive and no external power is needed Cartridge impedance matching button (10-40Ω and 40-150Ω) Gold plated input and output RCA terminals Solid full aluminum housing Input MC: 1 x pair RCA phono connectors Output: 1 x pair RCA phono connectors Specs: Frequency response: 10Hz - 55kHz: +/- 1dB Gain at 10-40 Ohm: 21dB at 1kHz Gain at 40-150 Ohm: 24dB at 1kHz Recommended load: 47 kOhm / 100pF Dimensions (WxHxD): 8.1" x 2.5" x 6" (6.5" with connectors) Weight: 2.0 lb.
