{"product_id":"gold-note-ph-5-2-phono-preamplifier","title":"GOLD NOTE PH-5.2 Phono Preamplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Gold Note PH-5.2 is a complete design evolution, not just a simple update of the PH-5. It is the mature expression of Gold Note’s vision of analog: high fidelity is not a sound signature, but a responsibility towards the original recording. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eGOLD NOTE PH-5.2 Phono Preamplifier\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for any type of analogue system thanks to RCA inputs for connecting both MM and MC cartridges, selectable EQ curves (RIAA, Decca London, and American Columbia, all with Enhanced option), gain and load adjustment, offering maximum versatility and flexibility. The revised interface makes load, gain, and equalization adjustment clearer and more precise.\u003cbr\u003eIn addition, PH-5.2 also features a new function: it can store two cartridges, one MM and one MC, simply by selecting MM\/MC in the Settings menu. In an analogue system, correct setup is not an operational detail, but an integral part of sound quality.\u003cbr\u003eA new aesthetic language exclusive to the Linea 5.2, consisting of elegant finishes, attractive details, and high performance. The new black anodized sandblasted aluminum chassis, designed to minimize interaction with magnetic fields, creates a more stable electrical and mechanical environment, reducing background noise and improving micro-detail and natural listening.\u003cbr\u003eThe new, enhanced power supply ensures greater dynamic control, a cleaner high range, and a relaxed yet authoritative sound, capable of maintaining consistency even in the most complex passages.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eThe color touchscreen interface offers a clearer layout, quick adjustments, and immediate access to all functions, allowing you to intervene in real time without interrupting playback, for a high-level user experience. The interface is complemented by a completely analog core: the PH-5.2’s audio signal path is built with discrete audio components and designed to reduce distances and minimize any potential interference. High-quality relays switch the settings selected via the display without introducing digital circuitry. Authentic analog purity preserves signal integrity and extracts even the smallest details recorded on the vinyl.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFaithfully reconstructing the original context of the recording has never been easier. Applying the correct curve means respecting the balance, dynamics, and character of the vinyl you are listening to, enjoying every detail. The direct descendant of the PH-1000 and PH-10, the PH-5.2 shares the same philosophy, but in a more compact and accessible form. The PH-5.2 allows you to select the most appropriate equalization curve for each recording directly from the display: RIAA, Decca London, or American Columbia. Thanks to Gold Note’s proprietary technology, inspired by the studies of Georg Neumann, each curve is also available in an Enhanced version to extend the frequency response up to 50 kHz and increase dynamics, extension, and realism when required.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTECHNICAL DETAILS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col sqs-col-6 span-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"block-yui_3_17_2_56_1515592797623_77673\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1531463361903_411\" class=\"row sqs-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col sqs-col-6 span-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"block-yui_3_17_2_56_1515592797623_180039\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3 EQ curves (RIAA, Decca London, American Columbia) all with Enhanced option\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 1.2kg\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 220mm W | 80mm H | 260mm D\u003cbr\u003eSubsonic filter: 10Hz\/36dB octave\u003cbr\u003eFrequency response: 20Hz – 20KHz\u003cbr\u003e[Enhanced 20Hz – 50KHz] @ +\/- 0.3dB\u003cbr\u003eTHD (Total Harmonic Distortion): \u0026lt;0.05% @1kHz\u003cbr\u003eSignal to noise ratio: -89dB\u003cbr\u003eDynamic response: 105dB\u003cbr\u003eOutput impedance: 50Ω\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAUDIO INPUTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInput capacitance MM: 220pF\u003cbr\u003eInput sensitivity: 0.1mV MC up to 10.0mV MM\u003cbr\u003eInput impedance: 9 selectable options [10Ω, 22Ω, 47Ω, 100Ω, 220Ω, 470Ω, 1000Ω, 22KΩ, 47KΩ]\u003cbr\u003eGain: 60dB MC - 40dB MM with 4 options [-3dB, 0dB, +3dB, +6dB]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"yui_3_17_2_1_1531463361903_410\" class=\"col sqs-col-6 span-6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"block-yui_3_17_2_56_1515592797623_179943\" class=\"sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sqs-block-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAUDIO OUTPUTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLine output level (fixed): stereo RCA and balanced XLR\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePOWER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMain supply: 220 to 240V, 50\/60Hz\u003cbr\u003e(depending on market destination, not convertible)\u003cbr\u003ePower consumption: 10W\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gold Note","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54719427576083,"sku":null,"price":2000.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0272\/9879\/files\/GOLDNOTEPH5.2PhonoPreamplifier-DOUGLASHIFI.webp?v=1789515760","url":"https:\/\/www.douglashifi.com.au\/products\/gold-note-ph-5-2-phono-preamplifier","provider":"Douglas Hifi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
