Hegel V10 Phono Preamplifier
Available exclusively from the Spinning Room showroom – not available to purchase online.
The Hegel V10 is a modern reimagining of phono stage design, built on over 30 years of expertise in discrete transistor amplification. Engineered to be neutral, dynamic, and highly revealing, the V10 is designed to extract every detail from your vinyl collection—bringing you closer to the music and deeper into the groove.
Developed from the ground up, the V10 delivers exceptional transparency and a rich, expansive soundstage. Its advanced design ensures a pure signal path, allowing your records to sound as tangible and real as the medium itself.
Built for precision, the V10 features a dual-compartment chassis that physically separates power supplies from sensitive audio circuitry, eliminating interference. Ultra-low-noise JFET transistors are used in both Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) stages, ensuring silent operation and accurate signal amplification.
Highly adaptable, the V10 offers extensive customisation options for gain, capacitance, and impedance—making it compatible with virtually any cartridge setup. Whether you prefer plug-and-play simplicity or fine-tuned optimisation, the V10 delivers outstanding performance.
