Michell Engineering Apollo – Phono Preamplifier With Muse External Power Supply

British company Michell Engineering presented the Michell Engineering Apollo phono preamplifier, which functions in tandem with an external power supply Muse. The circuitry of the phono preamplifier is configured to work with direct current, provides Muse. Both devices are enclosed in compact milled cases and connected by a specially designed cable. Michell Engineering engineers paid special attention to noise reduction, therefore, the separation of components was used.

The Michell Apollo phono preamplifier is capable of working with both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) pickup heads. The preamplifier has wide adjustment capabilities using microswitches built into the base of the case. A precision passive RIAA equalization circuit combined with Class A amplification for all amplification stages ensures signal processing accuracy.

The Michell Engineering Muse power supply, by separating the low-noise power transformer, eliminates as much as possible any generated noise from the main unit circuitry. The Muse power supply also features extensive smoothing capabilities and high-quality voltage regulators to reduce noise.

The Michell Apollo phono preamplifier with external Muse power supply is expected to be available in March 2025 with a suggested retail price of $4,500. Full specs will be available soon.
