About the MP7
The Darlington Labs MP-7 is a fully-discrete, zero-negative-feedback, single-ended Class-A phono preamplifier. It is optimized for use with moving-magnet (MM), moving-iron (MI), and high-output moving-coil (HOMC) cartridges, offering a gain of +40dB at 1kHz. The MP-7 also supports low-output moving-coil (LOMC) cartridges when used with an external step-up transformer or active gain stage like the SU-7. It features a passive RIAA equalization scheme with precision resistors and capacitors, and it operates at a higher-than-typical voltage to maximize headroom and minimize surface noise. The device includes enhanced power supply regulation derived from the MP8B model, providing superior sound clarity and dynamics. The MP-7 is designed to deliver a natural sound with cleaner crescendos and minimal listening fatigue.
