Introducing Pluto 2

Pluto 2 is the updated version of our Pluto Phono Preamp. The idea is the same: great sound that doesnt break the bank. Weve added features like higher gain, active filtering, and an overhauled power supply, all in a sleeker and more compact package.

Fully Shielded Aluminum Enclosure

We gave Pluto a facelift with a compact aluminum housing featuring precision machined details. The enclosure helps keep the inner workings safe from interference and noise that can be introduced by nearby cables or electronics.

Dual Gain Stage and a Redesigned Power Supply

Pluto 2 features a second gain stage -- boosting the gain level from 36 dB (single stage) to 41 dB. Having this additional amplification at the start of the audio path, rather than at your speaker/amp volume knob, delivers higher output levels and minimizes distortion.

With the help of a voltage converter, weve updated the grounding scheme to increase the stability of the circuit. This helps push Plutos performance specs further with less crosstalk, lower distortion, and a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

Active Subsonic Filter

Weve upgraded the subsonic filter on Pluto 2 to an active design that more accurately eliminates inaudible frequencies from your speakers workload. Certain vibrations (for example, footfalls produced by walking near your turntable) might be inaudible to the human ear, but can still play through your speakers at the expense of efficiency. Our active filter keeps your music sounding more true to life by attenuating only the frequencies you dont want to hear.
