From the Spectral Website:

The MS-ONE Preamplifier:
The debut showing of the Spectral design philosophy. The MS-ONE was initially developed from an instrumentation preamplifier to investigate new devices and circuit topologies as a lab and review reference. Enthusiastic demand from those who heard it resulted in its going into production in 1977.

•    First high speed audio preamplifier featuring DC-to-megahertz signal envelope.
•    First preamplifier to accept a low level moving coil phono input directly with no additional gain stage. This required pushing device performance to reduce noise and increase gain to unprecedented levels.
•    First solid-state dual monaural preamplifier.
•    First ultra-close tolerance RIAA equalization components. Custom made to Spectral's specifications, these capacitors and resistors were from 10 to 100 times more precise than any used before.
