This straightforward topology helps preserve signal integrity while maintaining a natural and balanced presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRIAA equalisation is implemented using passive components, ensuring long-term accuracy and avoiding the phase shift often associated with active equalisation circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe absence of negative feedback contributes to a more open and direct sound, preserving the character and dynamics of the original recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterials and construction:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• double triode valve amplification\u003cbr\u003e• close tolerance metal film resistors\u003cbr\u003e• polypropylene signal capacitors\u003cbr\u003e• selected valves for consistency\u003cbr\u003e• elaborately filtered HT power supply\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe high-voltage power supply is a key part of the design. After rectification and smoothing, it is split into two heavily decoupled rails, providing independent and stable voltage to each section of the circuit. This contributes to low noise and consistent performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSound characteristics:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• stable and composed presentation\u003cbr\u003e• natural tonal balance\u003cbr\u003e• low noise with strong clarity\u003cbr\u003e• controlled and effortless handling of complex material\u003cbr\u003e• good dynamic consistency\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carefully regulated supply and simple circuit allow the P10 to reproduce demanding recordings with a sense of ease and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild and usability:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe P10 provides sufficient output to drive any standard line-level input. For low-output MC cartridges, a step-up transformer such as the Puresound T10 MC Step-Up Transformer is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• gain: 40dB (x100)\u003cbr\u003e• cartridge compatibility: MM and high-output MC\u003cbr\u003e• circuit: double triode, anode follower\u003cbr\u003e• equalisation: passive RIAA\u003cbr\u003e• filament supply: DC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrand and design:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePuresound is a UK-based manufacturer focused on delivering high-performance valve audio equipment.
