Mundorf Power Supply Upgrade for L2 preamp

Standard on all other Audio Note Custom products, we are now offering the new Mundorf M-TubeCap power supply as an upgrade to for the L2. In a nutshell, these are high quality, low ESR capacitors made of Polyprophylene Film and designed for tube audio components. Using these high quality film capacitors as main PS filter capacitors brings forth a much smoother presentation without any of that electrolytic 'sound'. Our own listening test and consumer feedback confirm this option provides a genuine sonic enhancement.

 

The M-TubeCap is made of polyprophylene film with special features. This is particularly thin and the self-healing properties are markedly pronounced due to a special coating.  The M-TubeCap combines a high degree of dielectric strength and low residual inductivity with a very compact form of construction. It has been developed as a high-quality technical alternative to high-voltage electrolytic capacitors and is thus ideally suited to use in tube amplifiers

The results from using the M-TubeCap capacitors in the power supply are stunning. You will realize a much smoother presentation with transparency and resolution only a high quality film capacitor can provide.

Pricing: add $175 (includes custom installation)

 

  

The Audio Note Custom L2 is a custom built Audio Note Kits product and provides high bandwidth, low distortion and musicality.

Here are some of the highlights that our L2 Standard linetsage pre-amplifier offers:

  • The L2 Custom comes standard with the highly praised M2 power supply from Audio Note manufactured products utilizing high quality Audio Note, Jensen and Elna Cerafine capacitors, high quality Panasonic filter capacitors and precision 1% metal film resistors.

  • The analog board is 100% hard wired with solid core silver wire eliminating all circuit board traces.

  • Audio Note Tin/Mylar capacitors utilized in the coupling positions of the linestage.

  • High quality, very close tolerance precision 1% metal film resistors are used throughout the circuitry for an articulate presentation with unsurpassed extension, air and detail at the frequency extremes.

  • Mills non-inductive signal tube cathode resistors .

  • High quality ELNA Cerafine capacitors located in the cathode bypass for the analog output stage tubes.

  • High quality, low ESR electrolytic power supply filter capacitors by Panasonic.

  • High wattage Dale/Vishay wirewound power resistors used in the power supply.

  • Supplied as standard with these units is a NOS 6X5GT rectifier tube.

  • High quality 12AU7 linestage tubes come standard.

  • The M2 Pre-Amplifier is all hardwired – the line stage and optional phono stage come standard with AN silver wire. 

  • The AN Silver RCA's are wired with silver plated PTFE twisted pairs directly to the high Quality Grayhill selector switch.

  • The unit comes with a Noble Volume Pot as standard but can be hard wired with a Volume control of your own choosing and at an additional cost.

  • The M2 provides up to 5 line level inputs and 2 outputs.

  • All Response Audio built units undergo full 2 hour bench and 10 hour system testing.

The M2 power supply is taken from the Audio Note finished products line. This uses the Audio Note Trans 0103 Mains transformer/Choke combination with 6X5 for tube rectification and the ECL82 for regulation.

The L2 has been configured to be mated with our Bella EXtreme 100 mono bloc amplifiers and our Bella EXtreme 3205 stereo tube amplifiers.

Bella EXtreme reserves the right to change pricing and specifications without notice simply because things change from time to time.
