The Artemis Labs PH-1 Phono Pre Amp is the result of several years of
perfecting a simple yet extremely high quality tube-type preamp. High
quality parts are used throughout and the design is rugged and reliable.
The sonic qualities: tonality, detail, smoothness, and presence are outstanding.
The PH-1 is optimized for medium- to high-output cartridges, either moving
coil or moving magnet.
50dB of gain with low hum and noise
Allows the use medium- to high-output cartridges.
TexTool™ ZIF socket connected to phono inputs
Allows any shunt loading resistor or capacitor to be effectively attached.
Three stage design with passive RIAA equalization
Equalization is flat within +/- 0.2dB from 20Hz to 20KHz and is flat to +/-
0.5dB to 40KHz. Last two stages have gentle
feedback and can drive as low as 8K loads without the use of cathode followers.
All key audio circuits wired point-to-point using military-style
terminal boards
Sonic degradation due to fiber-glass PC boards is minimized.
One 6N1P tube, two 12AX7/ECC83 tubes and two 5687 tubes. All but
6N1P are run in Cool-Swap™ Configuration
An idle spare in each tube, plus tubes run cooler.
Choke loads for each triode
Allows tubes to run in their most linear mode and permits lower plate supply
voltage
Low-Gain MOSFET high voltage regulation
One regulator per channel minimizes cross-talk and gives a firm, stable sound
without sounding “solid-state”.
