U-Turn Audio OPEN BOX Pluto 2 MM Phono Preamp - Natural Aluminum - Silver - A Grade

phonopreaDual gain stage
Pluto 2 features a second gain stage - boosting the gain level from 36 dB (single-stage) to 41 dB. Having this additional amplification at the start of the audio path rather than at your speaker/amp volume knob delivers higher output levels (louder playback) and minimizes distortion.

Active subsonic filter
Upgraded subsonic filter on Pluto 2 to an active design that more accurately eliminates inaudible frequencies from your speaker’s workload. Certain vibrations (e.g. footfalls produced by walking near your turntable) might be inaudible to the human ear, but can still play through your speakers at the expense of efficiency. The active filter keeps your music sounding more true to life by attenuating only the frequencies you don’t want to hear.

Redesigned power supply
With the help of a voltage converter, U-Turn has updated Pluto's grounding scheme to increase the stability of the cicuit. This helps to push Pluto’s performance specs further with less crosstalk, lower distortion, and higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

Fully shielded aluminum enclosure
Compact aluminum housing featuring precision-machined details. The enclosure keeps Pluto’s inner workings safe from interference and noise that can be introduced by nearby cables or electronics. Available in brushed black aluminum and natural aluminum.
