T-320 Step Up Transformer/MC

T-320 MC Step-up Transformer - An MM/MC switch-equipped step-up transformer designed for high sound quality in MC cartridges, capturing the full realism of music and the depth of the artist’s passion.

Building on the well-received T-550 released in 2020, this refined model enhances sound quality and adds an MM/MC switch for greater convenience. It retains the premium 10mm thick aluminum slant panel from the T-550, offering both high performance and a refined, high-quality design.

Adopting a strong chassis structure that follows the T-550 design
The front panel is a rigid box structure having a 10mm thick slanted aluminum panel, a 1.2mm thick copper plating board chassis and a 1.2mm thick copper plating cover. Non-magnetic stainless steel screws are used for assembly to ensure rigidity and reduce magnetic distortion.

MC step-up transformer due to a special split winding structure developed by us.
Phasemation adopted their original divided winding wire structure. By winding a low-loss ultra-thick copper wire around a large EI core made of a 0.2mm thick 78% permalloy material, they brought into effect an outstanding frequency characteristic and phase characteristic at a wide band. This achieves outstanding characteristics of excellent linearity for low frequency and high-efficiency gain which reduces phase distortion in the audible band range and brings about a threadlike spatial expression and clearer sound image localization that can fill vitality over the entire range.

Loaded with an MM/MC changing switch
An MM and MC changing switch is located on the front panel which makes it more useful.
