Graham Slee Elevator - MC Step-Up

Service Description

The Elevator EXP will give you hum-free sound, purer bass, greater definition and much more of your music. REVIEW MODEL used by Anthony Kershaw for Audiophilia review of Elevator. In the beginning, you'd buy a step up transformer (S.U.T.) to be able to use a moving coil cartridge. But they hummed and did weird things to the bass. The Elevator EXP changes all that. The Elevator EXP is supplied with the PSU1 power supply. Make Your MM Stereo Phono Amp Do Moving Coil The Elevator EXP is designed to step-up the tiny moving coil signal to the moving magnet level of a hi-fi phono amp input. It Also Let's You Adjust To Taste Whereas some moving coil cartridges will happily give their best with 100 Ω loading, others can be quite particular. Rather than fiddling around with links or DIP switches, the Elevator EXP gives you all its loading options up front, right there on the front panel - making it easy to get your sound right. Suitable Cartridges Low output moving coil (MC) with output in the region of 0.15 - 0.8 mV (ref 1kHz at 5cm/sec) The Elevator EXP must always be used between cartridge and a moving magnet sensitivity input. It must never be used 'post EQ' - after the moving magnet phono preamp.
