The PA4 phonostage is made seriously - a component of the Masterclass series. The solid dimensions and weight of the device have a completely practical explanation - an amplifier made according to the "dual mono" scheme is hidden inside, operating in class A. The phono corrector has three inputs, two of which are designed for MS heads, the input impedance is regulated by installing soldered RCA plugs in additional sockets. Sugden's sound is surprisingly informative and transparent - all melodic lines, parts, playing features and timbres of individual instruments are perfectly conveyed.
