Ypsilon Electronics MC-26L Moving Coil Step Up Transformer; Head amp

The MC-L series moving coil step-up transformers are used to amplify the low level output signal from a moving coil cartridge bringing it to the appropriate level to drive a moving magnet phono preamp.

The MC-L series transformers are extra large size single C-core double coil transformers using a proprietary amorphous core material. Special winding techniques were developed in order to minimize inter-winding capacitances and maintain wide frequency response. They are optimized sonically to be as invisible as possible.

The transformers are shielded with mu-metal and are potted in 10mm thick soft iron nickel coated enclosures providing immunity to outside magnetic fields and a quiet and noise free performance.

The MC-L step up transformers were developed in conjunction with the Ypsilon VPS100 phono preamp. They can be used with most of the moving coil cartridges. For optimum performance the MC-L transformers can be used within a specific range of cartridge output levels.
