The AVM30 PH 30.3 is a compact phono stage from AVM, built into a remarkably lightweight chassis with a substantial gain range. The AVM30 PH 30.3 brings AVM's considered engineering to a space-efficient dedicated phono preamplification format.
Key specs that matter
Three single-ended inputs are provided. MM/MC voltage input impedance is 47,000 ohms. Output impedance is 47 ohms. Gain is a substantial 60dB for MC or 40dB for MM. Frequency response spans a wide 8Hz to 100,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. At a remarkably compact 150 x 52 x 108mm and just 0.5kg, the AVM30 PH 30.3 maintains a space-efficient, lightweight phono-stage chassis.
Sound and use context
Expect a clean, dependable phono-stage performance reflecting the substantial 60dB MC gain, packed into this remarkably compact, lightweight chassis reflecting AVM's considered German engineering standards.
Pairing
AVM's own integrated amplifier and preamplifier catalogue offers natural, brand-coherent pairings within the same broader catalogue.
Alternatives
AVM's own Ovation PH 8.3 offers a considerably more comprehensively connected alternative within the same broader phono-stage catalogue.
