About the Ambrosia 2000 Second Edition
The Ambrosia 2000 Second Edition is a revolutionary stereo preamplifier by Spread Spectrum Technologies, designed with four completely separate sets of transformers and giant power supplies to ensure ultra-low noise and exceptional sonic purity. It features fully balanced input-to-output circuitry, an optional integrated MM/MC phono stage, a headphone amplifier, tone and balance controls, and a large, bright front panel display with menu-driven controls. The unit weighs approximately 50 pounds and is built with a robust metal chassis with powder-coated surfaces. It offers multiple inputs including CD, tuner, auxiliary, balanced, and tape monitor loops, plus balanced and unbalanced outputs. The phono stage supports moving coil (MC) and moving magnet (MM) cartridges with dedicated gain and loading. Distortion is kept below 0.05% across the audio band, with a frequency response of ±0.25 dB from 20 Hz to 20 kHz for line inputs and ±0.5 dB for phono. The preamplifier is highly regarded for its natural, lifelike sound and is considered a reference-level component in high-end audio systems.
