Graham Slee Fanfare Gram Amp 3 Moving Coil Phono Stage

A complete dedicated Moving Coil RIAA phono stage in one box with remote power supply. Suitable for all low output moving coil cartridges between 0.2 and 1.0 mV output.

The Gram Amp 3 Fanfare uses studio tape head preamp technology to bring you the extreme fidelity captured in the groove. Because of its wideband design capabilities we are able to utilise op-amp characteristics that are beyond current hi-fi understanding, so, at last, your budget moving coil cartridge can deliver its full glory. The Fanfare is not limited by the slow low noise techniques that bedevil competing moving coil amplification, and as such it will deliver real musicality while at the same time having a perceived noise floor lower than many moving magnet designs

The Fanfare heralds a new era in Grahams Slee's' magnificent product portfolio. So if you have budget MC cartridge or even a mid priced offering, listen through a Fanfare and you will be amazed at how good they sound.

Includes Power Supply

( FOR EVEN BETTER PERFORMANCE PURCHASE THE OPTIONAL PSU1 UPGRADED POWER SUPPLY )

The input impedance of the Gram Amp 3 Fanfare is fixed at 470 Ohms which was found to present the optimum load for the vast majority of budget moving coil cartridges.

The source impedance of a low output moving coil is around 10 Ohms and a load greater than 200 Ohms is needed so as not to noticeably load its output. Moving Coil Cartridge loading is like speaker damping factor in reverse. Too much load has the effect of limiting the mechanical dynamics of the stylus. It is very much like an electricity generator. Anyone observing a fairground generator truck knows that the engine note goes low as the load of the ride is applied. By the same virtue, the stylus is stiffened against the groove with too much load (too low a resistance) which will not only compress the dynamics but also introduce distortion to the peaks. Therefore a slightly higher than recommended 470 Ohms brings a beneficial effect to dynamism.
