The Clearaudio Balance V2 phono stage features a two-chassis design with a separate power supply for reduced interference. It supports both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges via a simple switch, offers balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs/outputs, and includes a 6.3mm headphone output with manual volume control. Precision-milled aluminum casing available in silver or black anodized finish, with gold-plated RCA connectors. High-precision RIAA equalization (±0.1dB accuracy) and switchable subsonic filter ensure optimal performance. Fully balanced circuit provides excellent channel separation and low noise.
