The AVID Velsonic is AVID’s flagship MM and MC phono stage, engineered to extract the maximum musical performance from the finest analogue systems. Designed and manufactured in the UK, it features a fully balanced analogue signal path, dual-mono architecture and a substantial double-regulated external power supply, delivering exceptional noise performance, dynamic range and signal integrity without introducing unnecessary digital circuitry.
Fully balanced operation, eight selectable gain settings and extensive cartridge loading options allow the Velsonic to be accurately matched to virtually any moving magnet or moving coil cartridge. Mono and subsonic filters, together with support for two cartridges simultaneously, provide exceptional flexibility while preserving a clean analogue signal path dedicated solely to reproducing the musical information contained within the record groove.
