    The Kondo G-10i is a flagship tube phono corrector with a separate chassis and independent power supply, made according to the CR scheme. It provides a natural, clear sound with minimal distortion, thanks to its cascaded design and high standards of accessories: copper chassis, silver capacitors and silk-insulated wiring.

    Kondo Audio Note Japan GE-7i

    Kondo Audio Note Japan has introduced the new GE-7i vacuum tube phono preamplifier. The manufacturer emphasizes that the new product is neither a simplified version of the GE-10 model, nor an improved version of the GE-1 phono preamplifier, but offers its own new solution in the field of ultimate correction of the signal from a vinyl record. In the NF type equalization circuit, the SRPP input stage is implemented on the ECC803S tube.
