Waversa WPHONO1 Mk2 Phono Equalizer Headphone Amplifier
Overview
Combining know-how from the DAC and MCH PHONO series with innovative headphone output design from the D2 amplifier, the WPHONO1 offers unparalleled cost-effectiveness and uncompromising sound quality. Its robust steel and aluminum chassis provides exceptional shielding, ensuring a high signal-to-noise ratio for superior audio performance.
Advanced Technology for Precision Sound
The WPHONO1 employs a fully balanced design, a rarity in phono amplifiers. Each channel operates with dual signals, undergoing continuous Common Mode Rejection (CMR) to minimize noise and preserve signal integrity. Additionally, a meticulously engineered MOSFET-based amplification section ensures precise dynamics and smooth transitions, delivering a natural and vivid soundstage. Its high-capacity dual power supply further enhances performance, reducing distortion and maintaining dynamic expression.
Flexible Cartridge Matching and Accurate RIAA Correction
Designed to accommodate a wide variety of cartridges, the WPHONO1 features impedance and capacitance adjustment knobs and an internal DIP switch for precise tuning. MM cartridges benefit from impedance matching to reduce frequency response errors, while the head amplifier system ensures optimal performance for low-output MC cartridges. The RIAA curve, refined through extensive testing, guarantees faithful reproduction of master recordings, with feedback-based active equalization for customizable sound preferences.
High-Powered Headphone Amplification
The WPHONO1 includes a discrete headphone amplifier capable of delivering 8W of output, far exceeding conventional designs. With its powerful MOSFET architecture, it effortlessly drives demanding headphones like the Abyss 1266, offering audiophiles a dynamic and immersive analog listening experience. Combining cutting-edge digital and analog technologies, the WPHONO1 sets a new standard for phono and headphone amplification.
