The MC input features a new generation of custom made Nagra transformer using the special magnetic core of the HD PREAMP.
The gain selection on the front panel allows you to match the cartridge or the record very easily.
For MC cartridges, gain of 54 or 64 dB, for MM, 38 or 48 dB.
The various and numerous settings allow you to match your cartridge collection and the record very clos... [more]

1 x XLR and 4 x RCA inputs enable the Classic PREAMP to be connected to a variety of sources.
2 x XLR and 1 x RCA outputs allow the Classic PREAMP to be connected to two power amps if required for a monobloc solution.
A true bypass XLR connector allows the machine to be hooked up to a high-end home cinema to benefit from a power amp downstream and provide a neat cabling solution.

There are 25 precision ultra-low-noise internal power supplies that drive the unit, giving each element its own independent and pure supply source. The Nagra TUBE DAC converter needs two external power supplies, one for the digital section and the other for the analog, keeping the two sections independently isolated. It should be paired up with the Nagra Classic PSU unit to attain its ultimate ... [more]

Vibrations can be externally generated, caused by the acoustic waves of the music, transmitted through the ground (a nearby traffic for example) or even by mechanical playback of CD or LP.
The VFS uses a technology developed for the space agency, consisting of a very special damping material that allows a dramatic vibration damping and shock absorption. Each half of the VFS uses a dif... [more]

Our choice was to use a jewel pivot as found in the finest of aircraft instruments, which offer the lowest friction possible via mechanical means. Stabilisation is via outrigger pivot, which allows for precise azimuth adjustment. VTA is adjustable on the fly using a 40TPI microscope fine pitch thread vertical adjustment mechanism. Clamping is by a triangulated locking system which avoids the co... [more]

The latest iteration is the Compact PHONO. Housed in the same chassis as the Streamer, its solid construction protects it from unwanted vibrations. No compromises in sound quality were made to enable it to fit in the compact chassis. However, we have simplified the different settings and shortened the signal paths as much as possible. As a result, the Compact PHONO offers amazing performance fo... [more]

Contrary to its bigger brothers, CSA100/CSA150 the CSA70 does not employ tubes in the line stage. The CSA70 preamplifier section is a solid stage architecture with a vanishingly low distortion. The CSA70 boasts the same power amplifier technology as the CSA100/CSA150 with a feedback structure inherently faster than conventional amplifiers and a wide large-signal frequency response. The...

The CTA407 will automatically adjust for any tube in the 6550/KT88/KT120/KT150 family. The CTA407 servo system is not only a lossless automatization of the bias adjustment – it is an integrated part of the CTA407 internal high pass filtering, closely matched to the transfer function of the amplifying circuitry and a vast improvement to the overall fidelity of the amplifier.
The CTA407... [more]
