Description: DescriptionCondition:NEW The reality of the music on the recordBringing out the emotion of the artist as well The TA-350 follows the transformer mounting structure, flux control technology, and other features developed for the award-winning T-1000, which was released in 2019. The same 10mm-thick aluminum slant panel used on the EA-350 and other new-generation models has been adopted to create a unified design. The T-550 MC step-up transformer realizes spatial expression with a rich amount of information, which has been difficult to achieve with conventional products. Features Robust chassis structure inheriting the design of the T-1000The front panel consists of a 10mm-thick aluminum slant panel, a 1.2mm-thick copper-plated steel chassis base, and a 1.6mm-thick copper-plated steel cover. The transformer itself is floating from the main body with high-damping rubber material to prevent propagation of external vibrations. Electrically, magnetic shielding material is placed near the transformer to reduce external induced hum and magnetic distortion. Input section compatible with phono balanced transmissionGeneration of electricity by the cartridge coils is inherently a balanced operation. Transmitting this power through an unbalanced connection would not only greatly reduce the merits of the balanced type, but also greatly affect the sound quality due to the effects of external noise. Figure 1 shows the principle of wiring using a balanced phono cable with two shielded wires. The coil section of the cartridge and the coil section of the transformer are transmitted in a push-pull balanced configuration, and the shield wraps around them, so the effect of extraneous noise can be blocked. In addition, by connecting the midpoint of the transformer input to the negative side of the output, the connection is fully balanced (pin 2 hot) from the cartridge side. Figure 2 shows a typical MC step-up transformer connected with an unbalanced phono cable. Due to the unbalanced connection of the external shield and signal line, the shield side is exposed to external noise, which not only makes it susceptible to noise, but also allows its effects to enter the signal line. MC Step-up Transformer with a Special Divided Winding Structure Developed In-HouseA proprietary special split-winding structure is employed in the winding structure, in which low-loss ultra-thick copper wires are wound around a large EI core made of 0.2mm-thick 78% Permalloy material to achieve excellent frequency and phase characteristics over a wide bandwidth. This has achieved high low frequency linearity and high efficiency boosting (low loss) and reduced phase distortion within the audible bandwidth, resulting in a detailed spatial expression full of vitality and clearer sound image localization over the entire range. Use of High-Quality Sound ComponentsMachined gold-plated terminals are used for input and output terminals.Shipping We always send the item with a tracking number.
