Robert Koda Takumi MC-ONE Phono Equalizer

The MC-One is Koda’s flagship phono equalizer.

OVERVIEW

Designed from the ground up specifically for moving coil cartridges, MC-One will delight the modern record listener with greater insight, resolution and musicality than thought possible.
Conventional circuitry this is not. Plenty of gain (72dB), massive overload margin and a propriety equalization topology are but a glimpse into this work.

FEATURES

With 72dB of available gain, the MC-One delivers a combination of ultra-low noise, wide dynamic headroom, and an overload margin that sets it apart from every competing design. Dedicated exclusively to the moving coil cartridge, it is optimized for that singular task without compromise of any kind. Like every Robert Koda product, it operates with no negative feedback, no servo circuits, and no printed circuit boards anywhere in the signal path.
