About the PhonoDrive
The Mod Squad PhonoDrive is a versatile phono preamplifier that supports both Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) cartridges. It features a frequency response of 0Hz to 250kHz and offers gains of 68dB for MC and 46dB for MM cartridges, with an additional 15dB gain for line inputs. The device is designed to be left on continuously, as it takes about two hours to reach optimal temperature and achieves its best sound quality after two days of warm-up. The PhonoDrive uses high-quality components, including WIMA polystyrene and polycarbonate capacitors and close-tolerance metal-film resistors. It employs a 'Manhattan' configuration for component layout, ensuring efficient signal flow. The unit lacks an on/off switch, and the grounding pin of its three-pin mains plug is not connected, serving only to ensure correct polarity.
