HD PHONO PROTOTYPE

A short glimpse into the future HD PHONO. So far we are evaluating the gain stage. A few weeks of tests on various condensers and we can move to the next step. The promise is a striking sound, natural and full bodied. This is also the base of a future super resolution microphone preamplifier! The HD Phono will offer 3 inputs and can optionally be an HD Tape-head too! We know the world is waiting for it!

Available around end of 2020, price to be announced during the High End in Munich.

Nagra Classic PREAMP and Classic AMP review

Overall, the Nagra Classic preamp sounded extremely neutral and natural with a very even tonal balance. These qualities are to be expected given Nagra’s history in professional audio and studio recordings.

ClassicAmp ..it kicked as hard as the Bryston which is three times more powerful than it is.The Nagra’s sonic signature was neutral and natural with no hint of stridency or sibilance. It was a smooth operator with great poise and prowess.
