iFi AUDIO iPhono3 Black Label Phono Amplifier

Discover the pinnacle of vinyl sound amplification with the iPhono3 Black Label Phono Amplifier, a testament to IFI Audio's commitment to high-quality, professional audio equipment. This advanced phono stage amplifier is designed for the discerning audiophile who seeks an unparalleled listening experience, with a focus on precision, innovation, and durability.

Crafted with a sleek, stylish matte polished black exterior, the iPhono3 Black Label not only looks sophisticated but also performs at the highest level. Its super quiet noise floor is a remarkable feature, boasting an impressive 85dB noise floor as per Stereophile standard, making it one of the quietest phono stages available. This ensures that your music is amplified with crystal-clear clarity, allowing you to hear into the depths of your LPs without any unwanted noise interference.

The iPhono3 Black Label's circuitry is a showcase of the best audiophile components, including computer-matched op-amps, high-gain bi-polar output transistors, and Nichicon audio-grade capacitors. These components work in harmony to deliver a stellar auditory experience that will captivate any listener.

Experience exacting equalization with the iPhono3 Black Label's precise EQ curve and an explosive 108dB dynamic range that transforms your listening room into a concert hall. Drawing on the legacy of the AMR PH-77, IFI Audio's flagship phono amplifier, the iPhono3 Black Label incorporates trickle-down technology to feature the 6 most popular stereo EQ curves, allowing you to enjoy your vinyl recordings as they were meant to be heard.

Setting up your system is a breeze with the 'set and forget' feature. Whether you're using an MM or MC cartridge, you can set the precise load/gain for your specific cartridge to extract every ounce of performance from your turntable setup. Once set, you can sit back and relish in the exceptional sound quality.

Beneath its modest exterior lies a treasure trove of cutting-edge technologies, such as Class A TubeState and DirectDrive Servoless, developed by AMR for iFi audio. These technologies are supported by an array of special audiophile components from industry leaders like Burr-Brown, TDK, and Nichicon, ensuring a whisper-quiet noise floor and measured THD that is virtually imperceptible.

The iPhono3 Black Label is powered by the iPower X, the latest in power supply technology, creating a super duo that ensures clean and consistent power delivery for optimal performance.

Class A TubeState technology captures the 'magic' of tubes within a solid-state design, meticulously avoiding certain types of distortion that can detract from sound quality. This innovation is the result of nearly four decades of research by Chief Designer Thorsten Loesch, focusing on delivering the purest audio experience.

With Direct Drive Servoless technology, the iPhono3 Black Label eliminates the need for output coupling capacitors, offering a direct-coupled output from cartridge to amplifier without the use of a conventional DC servo. This results in an authentic and uncolored sound that audiophiles will appreciate.

The unique DC-Infinity circuit within the iPhono3 Black Label ensures that all offset voltages are canceled, delivering a direct-coupled output with 0V DC offset. This circuit operates below approximately 0.01Hz, leaving the AC behavior of the circuit at higher frequencies unchanged, and effectively eliminates any noise and distortion from the audio signal.

The iPhono3 Black Label is packed with high-quality components, including Nichicon audio-grade capacitors, Panasonic OSCON/ECPU capacitors, MELF resistors, and TDK C0G capacitors, ensuring that every detail of your music is reproduced with the utmost fidelity.

In summary, the iPhono3 Black Label Phono Amplifier is a high-quality, innovative, and advanced solution for audiophiles seeking to elevate their vinyl listening experience. Its combination of stylish design, durable construction, and exceptional audio performance makes it a standout choice in the world of phono amplification.
