{"product_id":"thorens-mc-1600-phono-preamplifier","title":"Thorens MC 1600 Phono Preamplifier","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe MC 1600 is Thorens' top-of-the-range symmetrical phono preamplifier, designed for both moving coil and moving magnet cartridges and made in Germany. Each channel runs its own fully symmetrical amplifier section built with precision resistors, high-quality film capacitors and low-noise operational amplifiers. Gain, impedance, capacitance and the subsonic filter adjust per channel via finely detented DIP switches, a separately shielded power supply section keeps the signal path silent, and connectivity spans balanced XLR and RCA inputs and outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding-right:1.5em\"\u003eArchitecture\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSymmetrical dual-mono design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding-right:1.5em\"\u003eCartridge compatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMoving coil (MC) and moving magnet (MM)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding-right:1.5em\"\u003eAdjustments\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGain, impedance, capacitance and subsonic filter, per channel via DIP switches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding-right:1.5em\"\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRCA and XLR inputs and outputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding-right:1.5em\"\u003ePower supply\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeparate shielded power supply section\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding-right:1.5em\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in Germany\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding-right:1.5em\"\u003eDimensions \/ weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 x 20 x 30.1 cm (W x H x L), 5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCall or visit the showroom about availability.\u003c\/strong\u003e Contact our team for pricing, a demonstration, or system design — \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/contact\"\u003eget in touch\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thorens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50417955832001,"sku":null,"price":3250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/8340\/9857\/files\/20250610-thorens-mc-1600-black-01-web.cb9e424be42c115780c04d03cf90460b.jpg?v=1785024812","url":"https:\/\/soundsanctuaryaustin.com\/products\/thorens-mc-1600-phono-preamplifier","provider":"Sound Sanctuary Austin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
