The Allnic Audio H-1201 is a Class-A vacuum tube phono preamplifier designed for both moving coil (MC) and moving magnet (MM) cartridges. It features four Mullard E180CC tubes in a zero-negative-feedback circuit with proprietary Permalloy-core step-up transformers. The unit offers four adjustable gain settings for MC cartridges (+22dB to +32dB at 1kHz, equivalent to 62-72dB total gain when combined with the native 40dB amplification) and fixed 47kΩ loading for MM cartridges (+38dB gain).
