Avid Pulsus II Phono-Preamplifier

The Avid Pulsus II Phono Preamplifier delivers a significant step forward in analogue performance, combining refined circuitry with greater precision, control, and musical expression. Designed to reveal more information from the record groove, it brings improved resolution, dynamics, and transparency to your vinyl collection. As a result, every recording gains a more natural sense of depth, timing, and realism.

Enhanced performance from every groove

The Pulsus II builds on the strengths of its predecessor with carefully developed improvements throughout the design. By reducing noise and distortion, it allows subtle musical details to emerge with greater clarity. Furthermore, improved timing accuracy and tonal balance create a presentation that feels more open, engaging, and effortless.

Flexible cartridge compatibility

The Pulsus II supports MM, MC low gain, and MC high gain cartridges, making it suitable for a wide range of analogue systems. In addition, switchable capacitance and seven loading values allow precise adjustment for optimal cartridge matching. Therefore, users can fine-tune the phono stage to achieve the best possible performance from their chosen cartridge.

Refined circuitry for greater transparency

Carefully upgraded components and improved circuit design help the Pulsus II achieve a lower noise floor and enhanced signal accuracy. Consequently, music is reproduced with greater detail and improved dynamic contrast. From delicate acoustic passages to complex musical arrangements, the phono stage maintains clarity and control.

Precision engineering and elegant design

The Pulsus II features a redesigned enclosure that reflects the same design philosophy as Avid’s turntable range. Its precision-built casework combines durability with a refined appearance, creating a cohesive analogue system. Furthermore, the carefully finished construction ensures long-lasting performance and reliability.
