The PH-1000 LITE is designed for those looking for the highest quality thanks to 3 independent inputs (2 unbalanced RCA, 1 balanced XLR), the possibility to select EQ curves, and the ability to play your own vinyl in Stereo and Mono versions.
Compatibility for every cartridge and maximum versatility: the phono stage without limits
The PH-1000 LITE is simply the best phono stage ever created by Gold Note: a unique piece of audio engineering, innovative in every aspect and completely made in Italy.
It features exclusive Class A components such as a headphone output, plus 36 EQ curves. For the first time, it will be possible to play any vinyl exactly as it should be heard, thanks to the huge variety of EQ curves available. That’s why the PH-1000 LITE changes the rules of the game, opening the door to a new era of vinyl reproduction.
With 14 gain levels, 12 load levels and 7 capacity options for MM cartridges, it is the ideal phono preamplifier for a high-performance analogue system, capable of reproducing even the most exotic cartridges with perfect synergy, the PH-1000 LITE is a perfect professional tool for high-end recording studios. It also allows users to change settings and make ultra-precise adjustments, e.g. on EQ curves, via the SKC knob and display, even during playback. Its innovative technology simplifies the user experience without affecting audio quality, as everything is done in the analogue domain: the PH-1000 LITE’s digital interface is completely independent of the audio path, which remains totally analogue. The result is an ultra-low noise, high-gain phono stage with no audio filters.
All functions are handled through discrete audio components, minimising the audio signal path to give extreme audio quality and extract the smallest detail from every vinyl. Powered by our firmware, the PH-1000 LITE can be easily updated from your computer when needed.
The PH-1000 LITE offers three independent inputs: two RCA and one XLR. Other features such as headphone output, Mono/Stereo control with phase inversion, L/R channel switching and Subsonic Rumble Filter can also be added, and here is the most advanced phono stage preamplifier on the market.
The PH-1000 LITE is designed for those looking for the highest quality thanks to the possibility to select EQ curves, and the ability to play your own vinyl in Stereo and Mono versions.
The level of quality meets the highest standards throughout production: from the precision-machined aluminium chassis to the electronic components and circuits that undergo stringent computer-controlled QC tests.
EQ curves such as RIAA, Capitol, Columbia/CBS, Deutsche Grammophon, Decca London USA, Decca London UK and Decca Mono 78rpm, Epic, HMW, Mercury, RCA Victor, Philips, Elektra, L’Oliseau-Lyre, Parlophone, and many others: thanks to Gold Note technology, inspired by the Neumann Cutting Lathe, each curve can be customised using the “enhanced” function, for superior dynamics and musicality.
The PH-1000 LITE puts you in control of every detail at all times thanks to its colour display powered by our proprietary firmware.
With the SKC (Single Knob Control) knob and display, you have an easy and intuitive way to control the phono preamp and quickly make any adjustments without interrupting audio playback.
The headphone output allows the audio signal to be carried directly from the vinyl to the headphones, taking the shortest possible route: the record, the turntable, the PH-1000 and the headphones.
The modular design offers discerning audiophiles the possibility of equipping the PH-1000 LITE with the Gold Note PSU-1250 or PSU-1000 external power supply, and the TUBE-1012 or TUBE-1006 valve stages, to achieve the highest level of musical realism in terms of dynamics, detail and imaging.
