The new SOULNOTE E-3 phono corrector implements a newly developed discrete balanced gain scheme without NFB (new Type-R scheme) for optical cartridges. The signal passes from the input to the output through only four transistors. This highly simplified NFB-free circuit preserves the freshness of the music signal provided by the optical cartridge.
Soulnote E-2 is a very unusual phono corrector. The device can work with both MS -MM heads and optical cartridges (!). Thus, full versatility is achieved and there is no need to use standard equalizers with "light" reading systems.
The Soulnote E-1 is based on the scheme and components of the legendary ph 1.0 phono corrector and has improved all the subtleties of this model. Due to the inclusion of RIAA elements in the load of the voltage amplification circuit, the E-1 has a unique circuit system that makes the gain characteristic of the RIAA and ensures uniform quality over the entire frequency range above 100 kHz, thereby eliminating the disadvantages of both CR types, which have problems with dynamic range at the upper level and NF types, which change the volume. NF depends on the range.
Digital-to-analog converter Soulnote D-3. A perfect digital-to-analog converter with zero asynchronous circuits. Connecting a network transport equipped with ZERO LINK creates a network system that is fully synchronized with the clock frequency of the DAC, which allows for significant improvements in sound quality by eliminating asynchronous circuits.
The Soulnote D-2 digital-to-analog converter uses the LMX2594 ultra-low jitter function with external clock generator inputs.A perfectly symmetrical digital-to-analog converter without NFB, using a total of four ES9038PRO circuits without excessive oversampling.
