Product Information
”I recommend a listen to the Stellar to anyone in the market for a new phono preamp, regardless of price. I don't think I've ever written that before.” ’Stereophile’ – Recommended.
Supreme expertise
PS Audio’s first product was a phono pre-amp. Launched in 1975, it was the product of a labour of love that had taken years to develop. PS Audio have continued to make some of the finest phono pre-amps since and it’s this near fifty year history that puts them in a position of experience that’s near unrivalled.
Class A design for fluid, analogue sound
The heart of the PS Audio Stellar Phono Preamplifier is made up of a fully analogue, Class A design with no ICs (Integrated Circuits) in the signal path. This delivers superb resolution and exceptional headroom – meaning you get to hear your music uncompressed and full of vitality. The amp also boasts very low levels of background noise, letting the most subtle details that you may not even have heard before, come to life.
MM and MC
With dedicated inputs for MM (Moving Magnet) and MC (Moving Coil) cartridges, the Stellar Phono Preamplifier is suitable for all types of cartridges. Each input is independent, meaning you can have both connected simultaneously – ideal if you have a turntable with two tonearms holding MM and MC cartridges.
Custom loading for the perfect cartridge match
For the perfect match with every make and model, the Stellar Phono Preamplifier has variable input loading. This lets you adapt the phono stage to the cartridge’s output level and loading, meaning you get the perfect sonic balance with any cartridge – be it high, low gain or any output in between.
Balanced XLR outputs
For the highest quality connection with your main amp, the Stellar Phono Preamplifier is equipped with balanced, XLR outputs. These pro-grade connections resist interference, giving you a purer, less distorted connection that’s also less vulnerable to losing signal quality over longer lengths.
