Era Gold Reflex

With the now famous Era Gold brought back into production, its natural replacement is here to stay. The Era Gold Reflex builds on all the knowledge gained by Graham and John, and then incorporates all the latest European legislation into its superb design. Bringing what some cartridge manufacturers describe as the "best sounding solid state Phono pre amp, money can buy, period" to the public at large, at a very affordable price. We agree.

The Reflex pre amp incorporates a cutter head 'knee' and low input capacitance to compensate for groove and cartridge phase displacement, thereby restoring harmonic information. Phase error is virtually non-existent due to an extremely wide and stable 150Khz bandwidth. Dual regulator power filtration is afforded through a PSU1 24 watt peak capacity power supply and the Reflexs' built-in regulator system.

"It has been through a deeper exploration of stability in the context of our wide bandwidth designs that the REFLEX has come into being. The way it has told us it is right, is through the musicians and singers - the way they have become "unstuck" from one another. The REFLEX has the ability to separate the performers further than before, but still keeps the togetherness or cohesiveness of the performance. It can enable you to hear that missing word while still hearing the instrumental accompaniment - that's what stability with wide bandwidth does - and nothing else can."
