The MP-1 is fully differential and balanced because the Balanced Line system (AES48) eliminates interconnect cable coloration, which is why the recording and broadcast industry has used it for the last 70 years. This is why high fidelity recordings existed before 'exotic high end' cables did! The balanced line system is better as it resists interference and noise, as well as cable artifacts (sound changes with different cables) and cable length. This eliminates the need for an exotic cable (and its cost) to achieve state of the art performance.


The MP-1 nicely complements our balanced amplifiers, and works well with any amplifier. Phono cartridges are naturally balanced sources; since audio is recorded in the balanced domain, now you can play it back that way, too; this elimintates the artifact of the tone arm interconnect cable. The MP-1 works well with very low output moving coil cartridges (less than 0.2mV) and is a state of the art headphone power amplifier.


Now for the Mk3.3 improvements! The phono section of the new preamp has more gain and is significantly lower noise than any prior version. In fact it's so quiet that the only way we could achieve the same numbers before was with a Low Output Moving Coil step-up transformer. There is so much more output that the phono is usually at about the same level as many digital sources. The line section is now lower distortion and also has a shunt-style Gain Trim system that allows for greater control of the gain of the line stage, so high output sources are not an issue.
