13. SPECIFICATION

Features



The HP 300 MK2MKII is fitted as standard with two cinch outputs, one XLR output and
one XLR input.



Gain of the line amplifier and the phono board also is switchable to adjust the overall
gain of the preamplifier - amplifier combination



An optional phono MC module may be added any time.



MC input impedance is adjustable over a wide range.



Soft-start for heaters, operating voltage and signal output. This results in maximum
service life of the tubes and noise-free switch-on/off. The output is enabled after 4
minutes.
