It features a fully symmetrical and discrete gain stage, balanced 5-pin mini XLR input, and balanced XLR outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge loading options\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarge ranges from 40dB up to 65dB are possible. A fully balanced design makes all the difference here. You can perfectly match it with a wide variety of cartridges and integrate it into the rest of your HiFi system, matching the volume levels accurately to other sources like CD players or streaming devices. The loading options for MM and MC are designed so that the widest array of cartridges will work perfectly with the Phono Box S3 B. Ultra low values like 50 pF or 10 ohms allow you to account for special situations, for example sub-ideal higher capacitance cables. Each input settings are stored in the memory. The Tube Box S3 B always has you fully covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"B\" stands for balanced\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe symmetrical design is the real standout feature! Connect your turntable with the 5-pin mini XLR cable \u0026amp; profit of the balanced signal path. Symmetrical, or also called balanced, transmissions consist of a hot and a cold (also called + and -) signal. Both signal chains effectively carry the same musical information. A true balanced gain stage can now extract the final musical information out of the +\/- signals and subtract, remove, all noise that could potentially be added along the transmission. As there are two separate signal chains, we also needed two individual amplifier sections. Definitely unseen in this price range \u0026amp; the best and cleanest amplifier for your phono signal!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"table-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eTube assembly:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2x ECC83 (12AX7)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eInput impedance:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10, 50, 100, 1k, 47k ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eInput capacitance:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50, 150, 300, 400 pF\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eGain (+ 6dB using XLR Out sockets):\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40, 45, 60, 65 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eSignal \/ Noise ratio MM (40dB):\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e97dBV, 105dBV - 'A' weighted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eSignal \/ Noise ratio MC (60dB):\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e83dBV, 88dBV - 'A' weighted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eTHD at 1 kHz:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;0,005% MM, \u0026lt; 0,01% MC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eTHD (20Hz-20kHz):\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;0,1% MM, \u0026lt; 0,03% MC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eRIAA-equalization curve accuracy:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;0,4dB \/ 20Hz - 20kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eSubsonic filter:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eat 20Hz with 18dB\/octave\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eInput:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1x 5-pin mini XLR \/ 1x pair RCA phono sockets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eLine-level output:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1x pair RCA, 1x pair XLR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003ePower supply DC:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18V\/1000mA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003ePower consumption:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18V\/800mA DC, \u0026lt;0.5 W in standby\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e206 x 81 x 153 (164 with sockets) mm (W x H x D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"\"\u003eWeight:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1010g without power supply\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pro-Ject","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48646617432219,"sku":null,"price":899.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0442\/3193\/files\/PJ29869966_1.webp?v=1779906639","url":"https:\/\/executivestereo.ca\/products\/pro-ject-tube-box-s3b-phono-preamplifier","provider":"Executive Stereo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
