The CAP Series Multi-Curve Phono EqualizerCAP1004As well as the world standard equalizer curve, it will be a model change with five old equalizer curves other than the RIAA.
CAP-1004The big difference is the high quality of each part, the analog power supply of large capacity toroidal transformer, the SATRI-LINK (Satri Link), the gain setting of the six-stage corresponding to MM/MC cartridge, and the Bacoon original casing.
In addition to the RIAA curve, which is the current standard equalizer curve, the record industry until the 1950s had mixed various equalizer curves.
The equalizer curve was set by each record company at the time, and the same company and the recording age were different.
However, if the equalizer curve is different every time the company or year of production of the record you want to listen to is different, if the setting of the phono can not be supported in the first place, it is inconvenient that you can not listen to music with proper sound. I don't think it will be. 。
So, let's unify the equalizer curve so that everyone can listen to the record with a proper sound, and now it is unified to the National Record Association = RIAA. 。
this is bacoon's new one.Phoneiko EQA -5640MK4From here, most commercially available phono-equalizer amplifiers should only correspond to the current RIAA curve, so when listening to old records before the mid-1950s, it will be heard in a completely different setting and sound far from the original sound.
That is a problem before sound quality.
EQA-5640MK4is an equalizer amplifier with six curves, currently standard RIAA and typical old equalizer curves NAB, COLUMBIA, FFRR, AES and OLD RCA.
By using these six different equalizer curves, let's enjoy your vintage disc from the latest record with the original sound!!
When I listened to a record of 50-60's using this phonoiko, it was supposed to be about 1954 that the RIAA was united,
For example, The Astrud Gilberto Album, recorded at RCA Studios in 1965, is better to listen to with RCA than with RIAA.
The RCA studio here was built in Hollywood in 1964, so I think it is usually RIAA in the era, but if the album recorded here in the 60s, the RCA curve might be better. 。
When I looked it up, DECCA also seems to have recorded in FFRR in the 60s,
Many records from the 1960s actually use the original curve that the record company had set before the RIAA? It may be one of the fun to listen and compare.
Anyway, it is a recommended item of scales from the eyes to analog fans who are listening to old records and want to listen to the real sound of vintage in the collection.
By the way, overseasBakoon ProductsThe reputation and evaluation of the product is very high (as far as the patent of the company name is applied without permission and the court case) CAP-1004 is now a hot product selling to fly.
