The Clearaudio Nano Phono V2 is a compact, high-performance phono preamplifier that packs audiophile-grade engineering into a chassis barely larger than a deck of playing cards. It is designed for listeners who want high-end analog sound from both Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) cartridges without a large equipment footprint.
Key Features
- Dual-Mono Layout: Features completely separate left and right signal paths to ensure exceptional channel separation and a wide soundstage.
- Resonance-Free Design: The internal circuitry is encased in a solid, CNC-machined aluminum block that provides thermal stability and shielding from electrical interference.
- Flexible MC Loading: Includes plug-in resistor links (51 Ω, 200 Ω, 402 Ω, and 1 kΩ) to perfectly match the impedance of various MC cartridges.
- Variable Volume Control: A top-mounted thumbwheel allows you to adjust the gain, making it easy to level-match your turntable with other sources like CD players or streamers.
- Subsonic Filter: Includes a switchable filter (via underside jumpers) to eliminate low-frequency rumble and protect your speakers.
- Hand-Assembled Quality: Each unit is hand-built in Erlangen, Germany, using high-quality SMD components and Burr-Brown integrated circuits
