Musical Fidelity LX2-LPS Phono Stage

The Musical Fidelity LX2-LPS Phono Stage features a high quality flexible Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) phono stage, with adjustable impedance. The critical elements of a phono stage are: accurate RIAA, low noise, low distortion, and overload margin.

Musical Fidelity’s RIAA correction is famous for its predictable and consistent accuracy. The accuracy Musical Fidelity LX2-LPS Phono Stage measures at ±0.25dB 20Hz-20kHz and extends to 45kHz. The frequency extension results in clearer high frequency detail with no intermodulation or other distracting anomalies.

The noise ratio on both MM (better than 82dB) and MC (better than 72dB) is virtually inaudible at any volume setting.

The distortion levels of the Musical Fidelity LX2-LPS Phono Stage are very low, typically less than 0.007% across the audio band. Overload margin is exemplary. Simply put, it is virtually impossible for any real world cartridge to overload it.

As we all know nothing is perfect, but the LX2-LPS represents exceptionally good value for money.
