The Arcam rPhono is a versatile phono stage designed to support both moving coil (MC) and moving magnet (MM) cartridges, catering to audiophiles who seek flexibility in their vinyl playback systems. It features adjustable input impedance ranging from 50 to 550Ω for MC cartridges, allowing users to tailor the impedance to their specific cartridge needs. For MM cartridges, the input capacitance is also adjustable, adding to its adaptability. The rPhono comes equipped with a rumble filter and a precision RIAA filter response, ensuring clear and accurate sound reproduction. Its high-end audio circuitry is housed in a stylish cast aluminum case, combining aesthetics with functionality. The performance specifications include a frequency response of 20Hz-50kHz (+/-0.2dB) when the rumble filter is off and a frequency response of 45Hz-50kHz when the filter is engaged. Notably, the device boasts exceptionally low total harmonic distortion plus noise (THD+N) ratings: 0.005% at 1kHz with the MC input and 0.0015% with the MM input, both at a nominal output level. The rPhono offers various gain settings—60, 70, 80, or 82dB for MC inputs and 30, 40, 50, or 52dB for MM inputs—allowing users to optimize performance according to their setup. With a maximum output level of 6V RMS and a power requirement of 12V DC, 2.0A, it is designed to fit seamlessly into any audio configuration. Its compact dimensions (194 x 44 x 124mm) and lightweight design (1.1kg) further enhance its usability in different settings. Supplied accessories include a power supply with interchangeable plugs, a stereo phono-phono cable, and a user manual.
