York Mk1 MM/MC 

The York is an exceptional phono stage for moving magnet or moving coil cartridges.

Conspicuously timely whether you're new to vinyl or an avid collector, the York can help bring that collection to life. In a moment when spending time with your music is especially gratifying and practically mandated by the course of world events, the York delivers the experience.

The York delivers performance in line with elite high end phono preamps without the elite price tag. Convenient gain control and extensive MM/MC cartridge flexibility allow you to switch sources and match loading requirements with ease and simplicity. The York provides a unique level of user control to help you find the sweetest spot for your cartridge, your audio system and, ultimately, your music.

Features

  • Front panel switchable MM/MC gain stage

  • Front panel fine gain trim

  • Loading options to suit broadest range of cartridges

  • Cartridge loading options adjustable on bottom panel

  • All aluminium anodized chassis with lightly brushed finish

  • Low quiescent power consumption 

  • Low noise circuitry and architecture for deepest "quiets"

  • Exceptionally pious adherence to RIAA curve

  • Designed and manufactured in Canada

DESIGN

The York implements a number of innovations which combine to make it an extraordinary phono stage. Enclosed in an all aluminium chassis, the York is shielded from stray EMI and always cool to the touch. Symmetrical input circuitry virtually eliminates any performance variation between channels. Op amps are selected from among state-of-the-art devices boasting “Ultra” high end performance. Thin film resistors and audio grade film capacitors in the signal path are of 0.1% and 1% tolerance respectively, or better where available, to ensure the tightest RIAA accuracy and lowest possible deviation from the intent of the artist based on the vinyl derived signal. No corners are cut or expense is spared in making the York a world class phono stage.

Key Features:

 

►  selectable MM and MC cartridge support, 40dB and 60dB gain respectively

 

►  gain trim permitting fine adjustment in the range of -4dB to +12dB of nominal gain

 

►  cartridge loading options: 100Ω/470Ω/1KΩ/47K impedance and 0 pF to 470 pF capacitance (0/100/150/220/250/320/370/470 pF)

 

►  cartridge loading options adjustable on bottom panel

 

►  excellent signal to noise ratios of >100dB at 40dB gain and >80dB at 60dB gain

 

►  compact size, simple elegant anodized aluminum with light brush finish

 

►  low quiescent power consumption (<15mA DC, <0.5W Standby)

 

►  ultra precision audio op amps

 

►  precision 1% film audio grade capacitors and 0.1% resistors
