Derived from the PHL5, the Spettro expresses the pinnacle of tube preamplification. No type of integrated circuit is used inside, everything has been designed to perfection. Inside the Spettro there are a pair of parallel preamplifiers per channel (Dual Drive System) with the aim of halving the output impedance and therefore obtaining an audio signal of truly surprising speed and dynamics. The final amplifiers driven by this preamplifier can truly express their full potential. Between the phono stage and the line stage there are 7 double triodes and all the components are highly selected and tailor-made. The power transformer was designed and manufactured in MastersounD's laboratories. The latest edition contains all the improvements made to the circuit over the years, with a new PCB board and an analog signal filtering system which allows for greater cleanliness and transparency of the signal.

Our first preamplifier, a long history of success, improved year after year. The simplicity and harmony of the PHL5 circuit is the basis of this project which allows incredible dynamics, richness of harmonics and a wide sound stage. The latest edition of the PHL5, recognizable by the thick satin aluminum plate, contains other important steps forward. A new PCB board has been introduced with a new design that includes some important improvements. As in the Spettro, a filtering system has also been introduced for greater signal cleanliness and transparency. The PHL5 features a fully tube MM phono stage, to offer the best quality in vinyl reproduction. In the latest edition there are also XLR connections for greater compatibility.

“Stilo” as well as stylus, in the archaic use of the Italian language also means style, that is, the complex of choices and expressive means that constitute the imprint of a certain school, of a literary, musical or artistic tradition. A perfect name, for a MastersounD product, with its recognizable and unique sound style. To adapt to every MM and MC cartridge, the Stilo is equipped with wide combinations of settable values, as well as two selectable gain levels. High quality and custom made components are used inside, including Lundahl step-up transformers. The excellent performance and extremely natural sound of this all-tube phono preamplifier allow you to give new light to the music contained in the vinyl grooves.
