The Graham Slee Reflex C is a high-performance phono preamplifier specifically designed for low output moving coil cartridges (0.2 to 1.0 mV nominal output). It employs an innovative ultra-linear solid state design that replicates the linearity of valve (tube) amplifiers but with the low noise and high gain required for MC cartridges. The Reflex C offers more than ten times the open-loop bandwidth of conventional solid state MC phono stages, significantly reducing phase modulation and delivering a precise, stable, and wide soundstage. It comes with the PSU1 linear power supply included, which enhances dynamic reproduction and musicality. The unit features a dual mono configuration, excellent radio frequency rejection, and uses high-quality branded components to ensure the most accurate sound reproduction. It has fixed default settings optimized for MC cartridges, requiring no user adjustments. Reviews praise its quiet operation, rich tonal balance, excellent attack and pace, and ability to compete with more expensive phono stages.
