The Asterion V3 is a tube-based phono preamplifier with both XLR and RCA inputs and support of both MC and MM cartridges
Highlights
Designed for MM and MC cartridges with high variability of resistance and capacitance settings.
Supports balanced and unbalanced MC cartridge connections.
Carefully selected and matched tubes with exceptional parameters.
The Asterion V3 offers exceptional gain control and precise input impedance and capacitance selection for all types of cartridges. This flexibility allows for optimal parameter adjustment, thereby achieving the maximum sonic potential of any turntable system
A top-of-the-line Lundahl step-up transformer is used for the MC inputs, ensuring natural signal amplification with minimal noise.
The RIIA correction curve is made up exclusively of passive corrections containing high-quality polystyrene and polypropylene capacitors.
The device supports the simultaneous connection of two cartridges—one MM and one MC—allowing you to switch between them seamlessly.
The versatile remote control allows you to control all key preamplifier functions directly from the listening position.
The touch screen integrated in the control panel allows easy and intuitive access to all device functions and settings.
The massive control knob uses a pair of precision bearings for smooth operation.
The device combines high-quality materials, aluminum and steel.
