If vinyl is your passion, you'll love your new PERREAUX VP3. Built by vinyl lovers - for vinyl lovers, the highly musical PERREAUX VP3 Phono Preamplifier brings your records to life. With separate, fully-customisable, low-noise input stages for both Moving Magnet and Moving Coil cartridges the VP3 provides clean, fully customisable Phono signal from your turntable output to audio amplifier input.

The NZ made Perreaux Audiant VP3 is a highly flexible customiseable vinyl Pre-Amplifier. Whether as part of a complete Perreaux system or as the vinyl preamplifier in your existing system, the VP3 will reconnect you with your music.

The VP3 includes separate low noise input stages for Moving Magnet and Moving Coil cartridges with dip switches for both resistive and capacitive loading on each input allowing for a clean, direct customisable signal path from the cartridge output.

The separate direct connections and switches ensure minimal noise and maximum channel separation.

Four different gain settings, the ability to switch between the normal RIAA and IEC RIAA equalisation curves and the selectable Mono input ensure the highly flexible VP3 is compatible with any cartridge and audio system through the high rated balanced (XLR) and unbalanced output connections.

The highest quality internal power supply features a custom designed, fully shielded toroidal transformer with shunt voltage regulation and filtering ensuring a low noise supply providing high levels of transparency, detail and dynamics.

The internal layout ensures that the power supply is separated from the pre-amplifier stage to reduce noise while the mirrored layout of the pre-amplifier design about the output ensures maximum channel separation.
