{"product_id":"m2","title":"M2","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt is well known that the accurate reproduction of music, not just sound, requires the purity of the incoming signal to be preserved. It is therefore not difficult to conclude that, in order to achieve this goal and to retain the musicality of the original performance, the complexity of the circuitry itself must be kept to a minimum. In response to this, the M2 Pre Amplifier uses a single-ended, zero feedback circuit topology. This is simply the most linear design possible, demanding pure Class A valve operation and removing the need for a phase splitter, which introduces unnecessary crossover distortion.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn contrast to the majority of the audio industry, we design our circuits with the aim of minimising non-harmonic and time base anomalies, rather than producing vanishingly small harmonic or low intermodulation distortion measurements. These non-harmonic amplitude and time base distortions have a highly perceptible and adverse affect on the signal waveform, and it is far more important to address these factors than participate in the increasingly irrelevant numbers game that chases „perfect measured response‟.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a result, the M2 was designed for maximum linearity and minimum transient distortion, and avoids the need for detrimental „corrective‟ measures, such as inherently error-prone feedback loops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt fulfils all Audio Note (UK) Level 2 criteria\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul role=\"list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure Class A operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero negative feedback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials and component quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul role=\"list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 Line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 Line Balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 Phono\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 Phono Balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM2 RIAA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMaterials and component quality M2 Line versions\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul role=\"list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures a 6SN7 line stage and a valve rectified power supply incorporating a 6X5 and an ECL82.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe M2 Line and M2 Phono are phase inverting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eMaterials and component quality M2 Phono versions\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul role=\"list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll our pre-amps are available as 'Phono' version designed as a proper record collector’s control centre and feature a stereo – mono switch and the most direct and cleanest signal path possible, with no tape input or loop.
