REK-O-KUT Ultra MM Phono Preamp

OUR MOST ACCURATE PREAMPLIFIER EVER - FITS ALL PURPOSES

for audiophiles, 78 collectors, archivists

* RULER-FLAT RESPONSE

* VERY LOW DISTORTION

* OVERLOAD RESISTANT

* 2 TURNTABLE INPUTS

* US / EURO / ASIA 78 EQ

* FLAT EQ FOR SOFTWARE

Even if you do not play vintage records, the ULTRA beats almost all built-in phono stages and is an excellent upgrade.  Add one or two turntables to an amplifier that has no phono input or a second turntable to an amplifier with only one phono input.   The ULTRA Preamp can connect to the line level input on any amplifier, computer sound card or mixing console for playback of turntables equipped with a magnetic phono cartridge.

For RIAA LPs it is extremely accurate to within +/- 1/8 dB.  It can apply accurate compensation for USA, European, Asian or other foreign 78s with front panel switches.  A 300 Hz position means accurate play of pre 1935 records as well as later US Columbia and many European and Asian 78s.  It a can also accurately play London/Decca FFRR and similar vintage LPs, and many non-NAB broadcast transcriptions.  If you want to use computer software for record compensation, it has a totally flat setting.

Because of its extremely accurate RIAA compensation, it is an excellent companion to the REK-O-KUT Re-Equalizer, resulting in a fully adjustable playback system for vintage and mono records.

With its in-line world power supply (as opposed to an outlet stealing, wall transformer) it can be used anyplace; no switches to set.  All that is required is either a EURO plug adapter, or a common, IEC-C7, figure-8 line cord for your country's power outlet.
