Thöress THE ENHANCER is a highly versatile vacuum-tube phono preamplifier and parametric phono equalizer for MM and MC cartridges. It uses active amplification without built-in step-up transformers, providing five MC inputs with 65 dB gain and one MM input with 45 dB gain and a standard 47 kΩ load. Three six-position rotary tone selectors allow the phono de-emphasis characteristic—and therefore the frequency response—to be adjusted over a wide range during playback.
