Gold Note PH-5 Phono Stage

If you’re looking for a high-performance, user-friendly phono stage at an affordable price, then the Gold Note PH-5 is the perfect choice. The PH-5 offers a true Class A analogue signal path, an easy-to-use touchscreen, and an innovative user interface that will appeal to HiFi enthusiasts. It also allows for great flexibility with its wide range of load and gain adjustments, allowing you to perfectly match both MM and MC cartridges.

The PH5 has a unique selling point as it is the first Gold Note product with a touchscreen interface combined with a full analogue heart. The signal path is made through discrete audio-grade components and sealed single switches, with the user-friendly display allowing all settings to be easily accessible and changeable. You can also select the most appropriate equalization curve for each vinyl record, directly on the touch display, and even extend the frequency response up to 50kHz with the Enhanced EQ curve feature.

To top it off, there’s also a dedicated external super inductive power supply that allows the phono stage to achieve its fullest potential, reaching an even higher degree of musical realism, better dynamics, and greater three-dimensionality sound. So if you want an excellent phono stage that won’t break the bank, the Gold Note PH-5 is perfect for you.

Here is what Gold Note says about the PH-5

The PH-5 is the latest phono stage that boasts the same high quality performance and cutting edge features as the PH-10 and PH-1000 at an affordable price. HiFi enthusiasts will appreciate the true Class A analogue signal path, easy to use touchscreen and innovative user interface that the PH-5 has to offer. The PH-5 is designed to perfectly match both MM and MC cartridges with great flexibility thanks to the wide range of load and gain adjustments.

Features

• An “analogue purity” which is able to deliver superior audio quality and extract even the finest details from the vinyl record
• Single RCA Input that can be connected to either MM or MC cartridges
• LOAD’s and GAIN’s adjustments, from 10Ω to 47kΩ, that guarantee the utmost flexibility and versatility
• Equalisation curve control: Offers 3 EQ curves selections, each of which can be “enhanced”

New Touchscreen Interface and Design

The PH-5 has a unique selling point as it is the first Gold Note product with a touchscreen interface combined with a full analogue heart. The signal path is made through discrete audio-grade components and sealed single switches. Every setting selected through the touchscreen is applied to the audio signal switching its path through the usage of relé. This signal path is optimized to shorten the distance and minimize possible interference whilst the user-friendly display allows all the settings to be easily accessible and changeable.

To each and it’s own EQ Curve

The PH-5 features 3 EQ curves and allows a selection of the most appropriate equalization curve for each vinyl record, directly on the touch display: RIAA, DECCA LONDON, and AMERICAN COLUMBIA. Thanks to Gold Note’s proprietary technology inspired by Georg Neumann (the producer of the famous Neumann Disc Cutting Lathe), each curve can be “Enhanced” to extend the frequency response up to 50kHz, improving even further the stage, dynamics and resolution when required.

Dedicated External Power Supply

To maximise the performance of the PH-5 Gold Note has also developed a dedicated, external super inductive power supply that allows the phono stage to achieve its fullest potential, reaching an even higher degree of musical realism, better dynamics, and greater three-dimensionality sound
