Overview Pro-Ject MC Step Up Box DS3 B Pro-Ject MC Step Up Box DS3 B ProAc K6 Floorstanding Speakers ProAc K6 Floorstanding Speakers
Summary

The output level of MC cartridges is very low, compared to a MM (Moving Magnet) one it is about 10x lower, which means, you need a special phono amplifier. A higher gain is needed to utilize the signals, which can result in a higher noise level and distortion. The MC Step Up Box DS3 B is the solution.

Key Features:

  • Lundahl LL1678 high quality audio transformer
  • Balanced in- and outputs
  • Fully passive signal path without power supply
  • 1:16 or 1:32 selectable transformer ratio
  • Superior sound quality
  • Transformer with mu metal shielding
  • Dual mono design principle
  • Low noise
  • Highest channel separation
  • Gold-plated RCA terminals
  • Solid aluminium casing protects against interference
  • Available in silver or black

Following the successful incorporation of carbon fibre cone technology in the Carbon Pro Series, ProAc have been researching other materials for possible inclusion in their high end loudspeakers. The results of this research have come to fruition in the shape of the new K series which utilises cones manufactured from the material Kevlar.
