LUXMAN LE-109
An equalizer amplifier designed for higher sound quality based on the concept of phono separation, in which phono amplifiers are made independent.
A twin mono circuit, which is independent of the power transformer on the left and right sides, eliminates interference when the power supply of the left and right channels is shared.
There are two input terminals, each of which is composed of independent phono amplifiers.
The Phono1 input is dedicated to the MC cartridge and the Phono2 is an amplifier for both MC and MM.
Gold-plated terminals are used to prevent deterioration of sound quality at the contact point.
It uses an MC straight circuit and is designed to be connected directly from the MC cartridge to the amplifier by removing the selector and switching function. The amplifier circuit also uses a high-gain equalizer that can simplify the signal path.
A low-noise, high-Gm JFET is used in the first stage of the amplifier circuit to achieve a high S/N ratio and a balanced PP drive circuit with excellent linearity to achieve a low distortion factor.
It is equipped with 3-stage gain switching, 3-stage impedance switching and 2-stage attenuator so that it can cope with various cartridges.
Uses S. T. A. R. circuit which does not share power supply line or ground line in power circuit or signal circuit.
By eliminating the shared impedance of each circuit, the S/N of the auditory sense is improved.
