"The Bellari seemed to create a sound
that was rich natural and appealing. Surface noise was low,
and the music emerged from a crisp quiet background. It was an
excellent sound by almost any standards; one I was very happy
to listen to. The bane of cheap vinyl reproduction is
excessive brightness/harshness. The Bellari sounded focussed
and articulate, but rich and warm too - with an attractively
full bass and sweet open mid-band." --

vp 130
The vp 130 is a tube phono preamp with a built in headphone amplifier for
use with moving magnet and high output moving coil cartridges. The vp 130
is designed to amplify an RIAA equalized phono signal to a hi level signal.
Since the unit utilizes tube circuitry the resulting output signal is more warm
and musical than solid state preamplifiers. The real kicker aside from the price
and stellar sound is that it's manufactured in the US.
- RIAA equalization
- all tube circuitry
- switchable Rumble Filter
- mute switch
- headphone output w/variable level
control
- steel chassis
- input sensitivity: 30 dB gain
- input impedance: 50k Ohms
- output impedance: 8 Ohms headphone,
100 Ohms rca

vp 530
The vp 530 is a usb/tube phono preamp for use with moving magnet and high
output moving coil cartridges. It includes a built in headphone amplifier,
burr-brown analog to digial (A2D) converter with usb output, and RIAA curve/flat
EQ. The vp 530 is designed to amplify an RIAA equalized phono signal to a hi
level signal or provide a usb digital output. Since the unit utilizes tube
circuitry the resulting output signal is more warm and musical than solid state
preamplifiers. The real kicker aside from the price and stellar sound is that
it's manufactured in the USA.

mt 502
The MT502 is a Moving Coil transformer that raises the low level of a Moving
Coil Cartridge up to a Moving Magnet level. Making your Moving Coil cartridge
compatible with a Moving Magnet Phono preamp. The MT502 is all hand built
in the USA with 100% USA made parts right down to its custom hand wound
transformers and custom made chassis. The MT502 is as much art as it is
audiophile performance. We designed the MT502 with a no compromise
mentality utilizing only the best components. With its 24K gold plated jacks and
transformers, military grade double sided glass circuit board, extra heavy gauge
steel chassis and powder coated red finish. The MT502 truly makes a
statement in audio perfection.
- I/O Connectors: RCA
