L2i-SE  Features (Linestage)

  • Vinnie Rossi’s latest Class-A, ultra wide bandwidth directly heated triode (DHT) preamplifier design, compatible with: 2A3, 45, 300B, PX4, 101D, 205D, and SV811 DHT families with one-switch filament voltage selection
  • Dual-mono layout using multiple patented Belleson super regulators for ultra-quiet linear voltage regulation of the triodes, and the (optional) L2 DAC and L2 Phonostage modules
  • Discrete, 64-step resistor ladder volume control using Pickering England silent signal relays
  • True active balanced (XLR) and single-ended (RCA) line level inputs and preamplifier outputs
  • Internal “DHT bypass mode” switches (replaces DHT stage with a Class-A JFET stage)
  • Yamamoto solid Teflon UX-4 tube sockets
  • Mesh tube covers for added noise shielding and tube protection
  • Included tubes: EH300B Gold-Grid (matched pair)
  • Full-function aluminum remote control handset

L2i-SE Features (Power output stage) 

  • Wide-bandwidth, purist Class AB MOSFET topology (only one pair of output devices)
  • True dual-mono power supply with custom-wound toroidal power supply transformers
  • WBT NextGen 0703cu Speaker Binding Posts
  • Speaker outputs can be switched on/off via the front panel
  • Power output, no matter the DHT, is a flexible 100Wpc into 8 ohms and 170Wpc into 4 ohms. Voltage gain is about 32dB with DHT tubes and 24dB in DHT-bypass mode. The integratedweighs a hefty 50 pounds and has a quite reasonable footprint of 17¼” wide and 14½” deep.

Additional Features

  • Solid, precision CNC machined aluminum chassis and “bank vault,” ball bearing control knobs
  • Solid, precision CNC machined aluminum isolation base with Stillpoints ULTRA MINI feet
  • Designed and manufactured by Vinnie Rossi in the USA

The L2 DAC is our latest, statement-level d-a converter module that allows music to flow in an effortless manner that mirrors true analog playback with its highly resolving and dynamic, yet non-fatiguing sound signature. No matter if you are playing PCM files from 16-bit/44.1kHz to 32-bit/768kHz or DSD files from DSD64 to DSD512, you will become captivated listening with Vinnie Rossi’s approach to digital playback.

L2 DAC Features

  • Bit-perfect playback at sampling rates up to PCM 768kHz (16, 24, or 32 bit compatible), as well up to DSD512. Sample rates are viewable from front panel display.
  • Dual-mono design, with one flagship AKM AK4497EQ d/a chip per channel.
  • Fully discrete, pure Class-A JFET analog outputs stage design with cascode constant-current source biasing (no opamps).
  • On-board FPGA buffer and femto-reclocking circuitry negates effects of jitter. Isolated input stages.
  • ‘NOS’ (non-oversampling) filter mode with digital filter bypass, as well as a Minimal Phase digital filter mode (selected via the “FILTER” button on the L2 Remote).
  • Absolute polarity ‘normal’ / Absolute polarity ‘inverted’ modes (selected via the “PHASE” button on the L2 Remote).
  • Belleson Super-regulated voltage feed to numerous ultra-low noise, linear voltage regulators used throughout (for both digital and analog sections).
  • “Silent” mute ‘reed relays’ (*barely* an audible click from the board when changing tracks of a different sample rate).
  • Inputs: 1 USB, 1 Coax (75-ohm BNC, with included RCA adapter) and 1 TOSLINK (optical).
  • Connect up to three devices and switch between them via L2 front panel or the remote handset.

 L2 Phono is our new, statement-level phonostage that we designed in collaboration with Brian Lowe of Belleson (patent owner of the Belleson super-regulators used throughout our L2 products). It provides a highly resolving, dynamic, and entirely natural sound signature that will bring you a whole new level of enjoyment from your LP collection.

L2 Phonostage Features

  • Inputs: 1 set of Moving Magnet (MM), 2 sets of Moving Coil (MC)
  • Built-in, on the fly MC remote adjustable cartridge loading (10 – 1000 ohms). Cartridge load setting viewable from L2 front panel display
  • Adjustable gain jumpers for MM and MC inputs
  • Belleson Super-Regulated split-supply voltage rails
  • Four low-noise and low distortion gain stages. Each stage has a nominal gain of 20dB, resulting in higher bandwidth per stage and lower phase shift across the audio band
  • Low output impedance design
  • DC coupled from input to output (no dc blocking capacitors added in series to the signal path)
  • DC Servo keeps output offset negligible
  • Design optimization for lowest value thin-film resistors, resulting in the least possible noise
  • High accuracy resistors and capacitors used throughout
  • 4-layer PCB with separate ground planes for analog and digital (control circuitry)
  • Cardas Audio input jacks
  • Connect up to three tone arms and switch between them via L2 front panel or the remote handset
