Two-Chassis Hybrid Design Phono Stage

Vincent Audio's new two-chassis PHO-700 MM/MC phono stage puts its low-noise power supply in a completely separate chassis for pristine signal quality. It will reward you with an amazing vinyl experience. Separate cases for audio and power supply circuitry help isolate the signal chain from AC distortion and interference.

The PHO-700 performs its RIAA correction with high precision for ultra-low distortion and uses the highest quality audiophile parts, inside and out. It has a single phono input, which can be switched to accommodate low-output MC cartridges or MM/high-output MC cartridges. 

For more than ten years, Vincent Audio has been successfully designing and manufacturing phono preamplifiers. The new PHO-700 may be the German company's best compact preamp to date. 

Highly Regulated Separate-chassis Power Supply

Vincent has deliberately omitted the typical 'wall-art' AC power adapter, opting for a specially designed and highly developed outboard power supply instead. The power unit has impressive heft when held in the hand and testifies to the quality of the transformer, metal chassis, shielding, and other components. This no-compromise approach to power helps the PHO-700 to achieve its low-noise performance. The PHO-700 uses the same power supply that is already employed to great advantage in Vincent's critically acclaimed PHO-8 phono preamplifier. It is connected to the separate-chassis audio circuitry using a nine-pin DIN cable. The voltage is highly regulated and filtered, so that the ripple and hum found in unconditioned AC power right out of the wall will not reach the phono section. The delicate audio circuitry only receives clean power.   

Vacuum Tube Circuitry for Smooth, True-to-Life Sound

The PHO-700 delivers the luxurious sound that can only be obtained with finely-made vacuum tube equipment as well as the power associated with solid state designs, including speed, reliability, and control. That's a difficult combination to beat, especially once you factor in the affordable price.

Look inside the front panel window of the PHO-700 and you'll see a 12AU7 vacuum tube used in dual triode mode. This contributes to the warm, true-to-life sound. High-quality components from Nichicon, Wima, and other companies improve the parameters of noise ratio and amplification.
