Key Features:

1.Balanced Circuits for Optimal Performance: Much like the Momentum amplifiers, the Momentum HD Preamplifier employs a complementary balanced circuit topology, ensuring maximum bandwidth and minimal noise. It boasts fully discrete audio circuitry without using op-amps or integrated circuits. The design features zero feedback for the most authentic and musical sound quality. Volume control is achieved through a resistor network controlled by an optical controller, ensuring a transparent and pristine volume adjustment.

2.Detail and Richness: The preamplifier introduces a redesigned discrete differential FET input stage with exceptional results. This stage features ultra-high input impedance, isolating the audio signal path from external factors. This enhancement renders fine-grain detail and delicate musical nuances with a previously unattainable richness.

3.Striking Dynamics: The Momentum HD Preamplifier incorporates a main power transformer that is 33% larger than its predecessor, employing a unique winding technology to deliver greater power output from the same footprint. The output stages operate at a 36% higher voltage, significantly enhancing micro and macro dynamics, resulting in a striking contrast and speed in musical delivery.

4.Advanced Remote Control: The included remote control utilizes Bluetooth technology, extending its range by a factor of five and eliminating line-of-sight limitations commonly found in IR remote controls. The tone and volume control circuits have also been newly designed to increase range and precision in both functions.

5.Aesthetic Excellence: The design language of the Momentum HD Preamplifier harmonizes seamlessly with the Momentum M400 and S250 amplifiers, featuring copper accents that complement the amplifiers’ distinctive copper heat sinks. The front panel meter indicates the volume setting, polarity, and mute status, while selector buttons indicate the active input.
