Description
TEAC PE-505 Phono Equalizing Amplifier
The PE-505 is a high-performance phono equalizing amplifier featuring dual monaural and fully-balanced input/output circuits that support balanced MC input. Developed by TEACs renowned audio technology team, the PE-505 focuses on achieving the most accurate reproduction of the original sound. It amplifies even the faintest signals picked up by the cartridge, processes them without coloration, and faithfully delivers them to keep listeners as close as possible to the original sound intended by the recording producers.
Key Features:
- Dual monaural, fully-balanced input/output circuits
- Supports balanced MC input
- Precision RIAA correction with DECCA and COLUMBIA curves
- Selectable load resistance for MC cartridges and load capacity for MM cartridges
- Faithful reproduction of original recording without coloration
- Optimized settings for various cartridge types and record conditions
