- Vacuum Tube LCR Equalizer: Non-feedback circuit design using high-quality vacuum tubes and custom-wound coils for detailed, dynamic sound reproduction.
- Three Equalizer Curves: Supports RIAA stereo playback, plus Mono 1 for DECCA records and Mono 2 for Columbia records.
- Dedicated Power Supplies: Independent left and right power supplies use R-core transformers and 5U4G rectifier tubes to reduce noise.
- High-Quality Construction: Thick aluminium front panels, copper-plated steel chassis, walnut baseboards, and vibration-isolating TAOC insulators.
- Premium Connectors: WBT RCA terminals and rhodium-plated Furutech XLR terminals.
- Award-Winning Design: Received recognition from several audio publications, including Stereo Sound Grand Prix 2020 and Audio Excellence Award 2021.
