Sonic Art AUSTRALIA: Fable Phono stage, moving magnet hi end phono stage

"The Fable" Moving Magnet Phono stage.

The 'Fable' is a simple design which features a very low noise, low distortion dual op amp. It is designed to accept the input of any Moving Magnet cartridge, or high output Moving Coil that presents a 47Kohm load. The 'Fable' operates best with cartridges producing 3mV or more output, although it will provide enough gain for cartridges as low as 1.0mV such as the Benz Micro range of medium output cartridges.

Low output moving coil cartridges can be used with the addition of a step up transformer such as the Quick Silver Step up, to boost the cartridge signal and match the impedance.

The 'Fable' features WIMA 2.5% Polypropylene and Polyester capacitors and Beschlag miniature low noise 1% metal film resistors, combined with Sonic art 6N Silver wiring and gold plated RCA connectors for superior sound quality. RIAA and IEC equalization is employed. The Phono stage is housed in a cast alloy case with power LED on the front.

The New TURBO power supply is dual -/+ regulated design featuring large 1000uF filtering capacitance, and special fast recovery ceramic rectifier diodes, instead of the more common (and cheap) one-piece bridge rectifier. The output side of the regulator features 470uF capacitors and WIMA bypass capacitors to ensure good transient response and increased stability. A NEW high current fully encapsulated 30VA Toroidal transformer completes the power supply. The power supply is housed in a non-conductive plastic case with mains fuse and power switch. A 1.5 metre cable separates the power supply from the Phono stage and allows the user to position the supply away from the delicate Phono circuits.

The TURBO power supply removes all AC noise and interference from the Phono circuits and increases the transparency and dynamics of the playback.

This Phono Stage exhibits a smooth and open soundstage with excellent frequency response and a detailed non-fatiguing sound. Audiophile products without the hype. Available in 240VAC 50Hz at this time.

Update!! Fable SE Phono stage available Now! The SE model features 12 Black Gate capacitors, Burr Brown Op Amp, New BY229 series ultra fast soft recovery diodes, CARDAS Silver/rhodium plated RCA sockets, & matched component tolerance for increased channel separation.

Note: Black Gate option is available for a limited time as stocks are not replaceable.
