Experience the rich and detailed sound of your vinyl collection like never before with the iFi Zen Phono 3 MC/MM Phono Stage. Designed to unlock the full potential of your favorite records, the Zen Phono 3 features an intelligent subsonic filter that enhances the sound of warped vinyl by effectively removing ultra-low frequencies without affecting the music itself. This innovative approach ensures a pristine listening experience where every musical detail shines through, free from unwanted noise and distortion.

The Zen Phono 3 offers exceptional flexibility with four MC/MM gain selections ranging from 36dB to 72dB and four input impedance settings, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of cartridges. Whether you have a high-output moving coil (MC) cartridge or a moving magnet (MM) cartridge, this phono stage can accommodate your setup with ease. Additionally, its precise RIAA equalization curve and balanced output deliver performance that rivals phono stages priced significantly higher, providing audiophile-grade sound reproduction.

One of the standout features of the Zen Phono 3 is its ultra-low noise floor, surpassing even some Class A+ phono stages by 20dBV with an Equivalent Input Noise (EIN) of -151dBV. This super-silent operation allows you to enjoy your vinyl collection with clarity and depth, immersing yourself in the nuances of each recording. With its internal high-tech 1.2MHz clean power supply, the Zen Phono 3 utilizes advanced technology to rival the performance of classic tube amplifiers' LC filtering circuits, further enhancing the quality of your analog sound reproduction.
