The device supports the operation of MM and MS cartridges. For the former, balanced and conventional inputs with a new step-down transformer are provided, in which the core is made of high-purity permalloy. The input stages are built on several FET transistors connected in parallel sequence. The amplifier is quite traditional with general feedback.
The circuit design of the device includes several cascades, which use radio tubes from the Slovak manufacturer JJ: four double ECC83 triodes, two double ECC82 triodes and an EZ81 tube rectifier. The phono corrector uses four boost transformers (two per channel) equipped with super-permalloy cores to increase performance.
