Ortofon ST-7 Step Up Transformer

ST-7 - a versatile MC transformer from Ortofon


USED 10 HOURS MAX! I was so pleased with this unit that it inspired me to go with the ZYX phono pre-pre amp for double the retail cost.


Compact and stylish, the ST-7 has a solid housing supported by four rubber feet, which helps to reduce unwanted vibrations in the unit.


High quality internal wires together with high quality gold plated terminals provide the optimum signal transmission. The sandwich winding structure, used in the ST-7, significantly improves the high frequency response and provides a very clear and open sound over the whole frequency range.
Additionally, the dual-mono design, including the individual shielding of the two channels, improves the imaging of the transformer and reduces the influence of environmental noise.
The ST-7 transformer will be a perfect match for, among other MC cartridges, the MC Quintet Series, the SPU Classic models and SPU #1 models.
