{"product_id":"graham-slee-gram-amp-3-fanfare-green","title":"Graham Slee Gram Amp 3 Fanfare\/Green","description":"A complete dedicated Moving Coil RIAA phono stage in one box plus remote power supply. Suitable for all low output moving coil cartridges between 0.2 and 1.0 mV output. With the high performance you've come to expect from Graham Slee.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's Been A Long Time Coming\u003cbr\u003eIt's always been our preferred method to pre-pre-amplify the tiny output of a low output moving coil cartridge and then apply it to the input of a moving magnet sensitivity RIAA phono stage (see the Elevator EXP). This makes perfect sense because there are precious few ways of providing the 60dB plus of gain required, with low noise, low distortion and the level of performance we know you want. Until now.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Gram Amp 3 Fanfare uses studio tape head preamp technology to bring you the extreme fidelity captured in the groove. Because of our wideband design capabilities we are able to utilise op-amp characteristics that are beyond current hi-fi understanding, so, at last, your budget moving coil cartridge can deliver its full glory. The Fanfare is not limited by the slow low noise techniques that bedevil competing moving coil amplification, and as such it will deliver real musicality while at the same time having a perceived noise floor lower than many moving magnet designs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo Into One Won't Go\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately the industry has been pushing the concept that one circuit can be optimised to do the two jobs of moving magnet and moving coil pre-amplification at the flick of a switch. If science were that easy then Michael Shumaker could win - at the flick of a switch - Formula 1 in the car he drives to the track in!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe truth is that one amplifier stage can only be optimised for one narrow range of gains.\u003cbr\u003eThat is why the Fanfare is dedicated to low output moving coil and stages such as our similar looking Gram Amp 2 Special Edition are dedicated to the higher output moving magnets and high output moving coils.","brand":"Graham Slee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57407476662604,"sku":"GSGRAMAMP3FANFARE","price":233.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1053\/6891\/2204\/files\/gsgramamp3fanfare.jpg?v=1777457624","url":"https:\/\/www.stoneaudio.co.uk\/products\/graham-slee-gram-amp-3-fanfare-green","provider":"Stone Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
