The Archiver offers the ultimate in flexibility for a phonostage. The super-quiet solid-state design uses matched discrete JFETs (no opamps) in a fully balanced and differential configuration. This professional unit combines the best features of studio electronics with hi-end audiophile sensibilities. The Archiver was designed to be your last phonostage, offering dual inputs (one specifically for mono), adjustable loading and gain (works with any cartridge), variable equalization for older recordings, a phase switch, balanced outputs, and 16-bit analog-to-digital conversion with a convenient USB output.

Although the main purpose of this unit is for archiving LPs to computer at CD quality, it's high-end heritage makes it perfect for just listening. The zero-feedback gain stages and passive equalization offer superb distortion-free sonics. Incredibly, all of these features are implemented with a mere 12 matched JFET transistors per channel.

For recording, we recommend using Audacity software, available in both Windows and Mac versions. Information for various equalization settings can be found here
