Extremely rare sut made in England for highend step up MC cartridge. Wonderful sound. From my highend collection. The AN-S2 is a passive device, designed to convert the mainly current output of your Moving Coil cartridge (MC) to a higher voltage, low current signal of sufficient strength to allow a Moving Magnet (MM) phono stage to amplify it to a suitable level. The internal transformers used in the AN-S2 are manufactured by Audio Note (UK) exclusively, use the very best core materials and winding technology available at the price, and are housed in mumetal screening canisters to minimise noise and interference. The AN-S2 can be supplied in two versions; the AN-S2/L (low impedance) and the AN-S2/H (high impedance). The ‘L’ version has a switchable input impedance of 3 Ohms and 12 Ohms; the ‘H’ version, 15 Ohms and 60 Ohms. The 3 Ohm input of the ‘L’ version has been primarily designed to partner the Audio Note IO Moving Coil cartridges, and the 12 Ohm input is intended to be used with cartridges with an internal impedance of around 3 to 4 Ohms. The 15 Ohm input of the ‘H’ version is designed to partner cartridges with an internal impedance of around 4 to 5 Ohms; the 60 Ohm input is designed for cartridges with internal impedance in the region of 15 to 20 Ohms. It is possible to use our transformers with cartridges that have greater internal impedances, or values that are outside the preferred ranges of the switchable inputs, however, it is important to realise that an input impedance in the region of three to four times the internal impedance of your cartridge will usually provide the best results. Technical Specifications INPUT IMPEDANCE: see text above OUTPUT IMPEDANCE: 47K Ohm CHANNEL BALANCE: +/-0.3dB INTERNAL WIRING: 99.99% pure Copper ?

Purchased new from Audio Note UK in the early 90’s.

Audio Note UK confirmed these are genuine early generation Audio Note UK cables. They have been tested with a volt metre and are working fully. Excellent condition, seldom used spare cables. Our Interconnects represent the finest possible choice for both analogue Stereo interconnects and also Digital interconnects between a CD Transport and DAC. As each cable is either a shielded twisted pair, shielded twisted quad or shielded twisted hex design, they can be configured for use with either single ended / RCA connection or balanced / XLR. We source all of the Silver used in our cables from a single source, helping to ensure a consistent level of quality and purity. We have to buy large quantities in bulk, meaning that we usually hold what is by far the largest quantity of Silver Bullion in the Audio Industry! All of this Silver is custom drawn to our specific gauge requirements, then coated in a variety of dielectric polymer depending on the application the particular cable is design for. It is then transported to the cable production facility where it is transformed into our extensive range of wires and cables. All for us, and no one else. - AN-V | Audio Note (UK) The AN-GP-AG is our most affordable RCA connector, and is regularly used on many of our cables up to and including the AN-Vx interconnects. It is a multi-part circular design featuring a semi-hollow, heavily Silver plated centre pin, a heavily Silver plated ring / negative contact, PTFE insulation and a two part, non-magnetic outer metal jacket which incorporates a grub screw for solid strain relief. It is extremely suitable for cables of smaller outer diameter, true coaxial cables, and for use with electronics that have restricted space between the input sockets, thanks to its small outer diameter. It is available with the following rear entry sizes, to suit the external diameter of your selected cable - Cable Plugs | Audio Note (UK)
