About the The Turntable's Choice
The Turntable’s Choice Balanced is a dedicated moving-coil (MC) phono preamplifier with passive RIAA equalization, variable input impedance, and 50-ohm output impedance. The balanced version uses four chassis—two phono-stage units and two outboard power supplies—and provides up to 10 V balanced output, supporting long interconnect runs. Published specifications include 70 dB gain (2,500×), a 76 dB signal-to-noise ratio, and distortion below 0.03%. Its low-noise, discrete design is housed in aluminum enclosures intended to reduce resonance and microphonic effects. The balanced configuration weighs approximately 7.0 kg.
