Improving on already great
performance is no easy task. When an
audio component works so well, why
change it? Thanks to various
emerging technologies, several
design enhancements became available,
opening up a window of opportunity
to (i) upgrade the sonics of the
original 310LP and (ii) reduce the
noise floor of its onboard power
supply. Consequently, this
diminishes the need for an external
power supply.
The result is an even quieter phono
preamplifier which means you will
experience a blacker background and
even more lifelike musical
reproduction. Combine this with all
the MOON hallmarks: clean, powerful,
fast extended bass an open midrange
and airy extended high frequencies,
mid-priced phono preamplifier
performance has just taken a major
leap forward. To further these
significant enhancements, the
310LP is housed in a very stylish
half width chassis.
Within the confines of this chassis
are numerous end-user adjustments
for resistance loading, capacitance
loading and gain level. Going one
step further, you can even chose
from two different equalization
curves; either the RIAA curve or the
IEC curve.
Rounding out this package are
balanced outputs that allow you to
take full advantage of connectivity
to a balanced preamplifier or
integrated for a significant
improvement in noise floor, dynamics
and midrange transparency.
The finest mid-priced phono
preamplifier just got even better.
The Nēo 310LP elevates the
performance of its highly acclaimed
predecessor to another level.

Features
-
Large
isolated power supply on a
separate circuit board using a
toroidal transformer with 2
stages of voltage regulation
-
Single-ended
RCA and Balanced XLR output
connectors.
-
Can be driven
with a compatible external power
supply.
-
Power supply
voltage regulation includes
i2DCf (Independent Inductive DC
Filtering); 1 inductor for each
and every IC in the audio
circuit’s signal path – 2 stages
in all.
-
Power supply
features custom MOON
electrolytic capacitors.
-
4-Layer
printed circuit boards with pure
copper tracings for a much
shorter signal path; This
results in greater sonic
accuracy and dramatically
improved signal-to-noise ratio.
-
A symmetrical
circuit design with accurate
matching of the very finest high
quality electronic components.
