EAT E-Glo Petit Hybrid / Tube Phono Preamplifier
Breathtaking dynamics, midrange clarity, and high resolution make the E-Glo Petit something very special.
EAT uses discrete technology with no operational amplifiers in the design of the E-Glo Petit. Discrete technology outperforms operational amps in every aspect (except the price).
Two 12AX7 dual triodes comprise the tube section of the hybrid phono preamp. A special low-noise J-FET transistor 2SK209 is utilized for the input. This transistor would be good enough for every other phono preamplifier. But not for EAT! They’ve used four devices in cascode - parallel. This combination allows them to achieve extremely low noise even at high gain.
Is there any other tube phono preamplifier which has S/N 87dB (A-weighted) at 70dB gain across the whole audio range? EAT strongly believes that a well-filtered power supply is an integral part of the signal path. That is why they always pay the highest attention to its design. Regulated and well-filtered power supplies are the key to great sound. In the case of E-Glo Petit, EAT designed a very special power supply that is capable of delivering a very high anode voltage for the 12AX7 triodes. This allows operation in their most linear range.
Available with Macassar or Gloss Black side panels.
The matching liner power supply (LPS) can power the E-Glo Petit and your favorite EAT turntable simultaneously. It will increase speed stability on your turntable and will lower the noise floor on your E-Glo S to supply a smoother and more dynamic sound!
