What is called the \"vinyl revival\" is in full swing, and a clear and comprehensive account of the electronics you need is very timely. Vinyl reproduction presents some unique technical challenges; the signal levels from moving-magnet cartridges are low, and those from moving-coil cartridges lower still, so a good deal of high-quality low-noise amplification is required.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSome of the features of \u003ci\u003eElectronics for Vinyl\u003c\/i\u003e include: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eintegrating phono amplifiers into a complete preamplifier;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ediffering phono amplifier technologies; covering active, passive, and semi-passive RIAA equalisation and transconductance RIAA stages;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ethe tricky business of getting really accurate RIAA equalisation without spending a fortune on expensive components, such as switched-gain MM\/MC RIAA amplifiers that retain great accuracy at all gains, the effects of finite open-loop gain, cartridge-preamplifier interaction, and so on;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003enoise and distortion in phono amplifiers, covering BJTs, FETs, and opamps as input devices, hybrid phono amplifiers, noise in balanced MM inputs, noise weighting, and cartridge load synthesis for ultimately low noise;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003earchival and non-standard equalisation for 78s etc.;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ebuilding phono amplifiers with discrete transistors;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003esubsonic filtering, covering all-pole filters, elliptical filters, and suppression of subsonics by low-frequency crossfeed, including the unique Devinyliser concept;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eultrasonic and scratch filtering, including a variety of variable-slope scratch filters;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eline output technology, including zero-impedance outputs, on level indication for optimal setup, and on specialised power supplies; and\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003edescription of six practical projects which range from the simple to the highly sophisticated, but all give exceptional performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eElectronics for Vinyl\u003c\/i\u003e brings the welcome news that there is simply no need to spend huge sums of money to get performance that is within a hair's breadth of the best theoretically obtainable.
