About the No. 5206

The Mark Levinson No.5206 is a precision preamplifier that serves as the hub of a high-end audio system. It features proprietary PurePath fully discrete, direct-coupled, dual-monaural line-level Class A preamp circuitry for which the design team has been awarded two patents. The unit combines analog and digital audio capabilities with a custom-made Precision Link II DAC featuring an ESS Sabre Pro 32-bit converter. It includes a premium phono preamp supporting both Moving Magnet and Moving Coil cartridges with hybrid gain topology and active/passive RIAA equalization. The Class A analog line stage has sufficient current capability to drive headphones directly. Designed, engineered, and precision-crafted in the USA, the No.5206 delivers uncompromised musical purity while maintaining exceptional flexibility for modern audio systems.
