About the CineMag 1131 (Blue)
The Bob's Devices CineMag 1131 Blue is a premium handcrafted MC cartridge step-up transformer (SUT) designed to connect low-output moving coil cartridges to phono preamplifiers. Built with CineMag CMQEE-1131 (Blue Version) transformers featuring ultra-high quality laminations and lower inductance for superior sound, it is housed in a hand-polished black powder-coated cast-aluminum enclosure with laser-etched lettering. It includes C&K silver contact toggle switches for gain (high/low) and ground lift, deluxe gold-plated RCA jacks, and a grounding post. Reviews praise its smooth upper frequencies, tight bass, 3D imaging, natural midrange, and excellent value, making it a 'giant killer' for high-end systems.
