The Vitus Audio MP-P201 Mk.III phono preamplifier uses the same discrete gain stage modules that were developed for the MP-L201, but for this phono preamplifier they have been optimized to achieve much lower noise levels. This is important to ensure high-quality musical performance even with cartridges with the lowest output voltage currently available on the market.

The Vitus Audio MP-P201 Mk.III offers MC gain 50, 53, 55, 57, 60, 63, 67, 70, 72, 75dB and MC load steps 10, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 50, 75, 90, 100, 110, 120, 150, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 750, 1k, 2kΩ - gain is fully selectable based on the output voltage of the connected cartridge.

This is the optimal way to ensure the ideal balance between the cartridge and the phono preamplifier. And changing the gain settings and load parameters is easy using the remote control or the buttons on the front panel of the unit. Of course, the phono preamplifier is capable of handling both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges.

Finally, the external power supply ensures a significant reduction in noise levels. The power transformer and other components of the power supply are located far from the sensitive audio circuits of the Vitus Audio MP-P201 Mk.III.
