micro iPhono2
Only everything has been improved
Southport, UK – 25th April 2016
The best just made the quantum leap
The original iPhono was the ‘benchmark’ phono stage <US$1,000. Only retaining the same design philosophy, we went back to the beginning and designed a ground-up, all-new iPhono2. The design, circuitry and parts are all far-reaching:
The sonic performance of the iPHONO2 when partnered with any cartridge from the Shure V-15 through to the Koetsu Coralstone is something to behold.

The retail price of the micro iPHONO2 is US$499 (ex-tax) or Euro569/£435 (incl VAT).
Thank you!

The original iPhono was the ‘benchmark’ phono stage <US$1,000. Only retaining the same design philosophy, we went back to the beginning and designed a ground-up, all-new iPhono2. The design, circuitry and parts are all far-reaching:
- Ultra-wide gain range – 36dB to astonishing 72dB; suits any cartridge.
- Whisper quiet – SNR of >86dB, an impressive 10dB quieter than the original.
- Latest AMR trickle-down technology: revised Class A, TubeState® circuit for unrivalled linearity.
- DirectDrive® Servo-less ‘DC infinity’ circuit. No capacitor AND no DC-Servo means zero added noise and distortion, there is no purer audio signal path.
The sonic performance of the iPHONO2 when partnered with any cartridge from the Shure V-15 through to the Koetsu Coralstone is something to behold.
Features
- Ultra-wide gain from 36dB up to 72dB
- 6 precision stereo EQ curves (±0.2dB)

- Reference class parts quality from Elna Silmic to Silver Mica capacitors
- iPower (15V) included, ‘quieter than battery’ power supply
