ESOTERIC SOUND RE-EQUALIZER II
Pre-1955 records were recorded to different standard than now employed in RIAA equalized phono amplifiers. The Re-Equalizer compensates for this. Easily installed thru the external tape monitor circuit or your preamplifier/receiver or via the SuperConnector.
* Accurate reproduction from any source is accomplished by producing an accurate equalization
difference curve to compensate the output of your RIAA phono preamp.
* In "BYPASS" mode, signal is hard-wired input to output - introduces absolutely no noise or
distortion to any audiophile unit.
* In “IN” mode, left and right are combined to mono, and phone compensation introduced
* Supplied with six pages of recommended compensation settings to accommodate any vintage
record - including acoustics. This is the most highly researched chart ever produced.
* Passive equalization design & film capacitors assure low TIM and transparent sound.
* High input impedance for use with either tube or solid-state amplifier outputs.
* Connects to hifi systems like any ordinary graphic equalizer.
* Works with phono, tape recorder outputs - any source. * Sixty-Four different record compensations
* Walnut case available

use. The Professional Moving Magnet Preamp is designed for both
home as well as broadcast and studio applications. The
REK-O-KUT Professional Moving Magnet Preamp will make it possible to
use a line level input on any amplifier or mixing console for
playback with a turntable that is equipped with a conventional, moving
magnet phono cartridge. Typical input sensitivities of such inputs
are roughly 250 mVolts, and the outputs of typical moving magnet
cartridges is about 3 mVolts. The preamp boosts the level of the
magnetic cartridge and also applies "record compensation" in the
form of the RIAA curve. This adjusts the relative levels of bass and
treble to match that of modern records. Used with the Esoteric
Sound Re-Equalizer, it makes a fully adjustable playback system
for vintage and mono records.

input. The REK-O-KUT Audiophile Archival Preamp can
be used to convert any AUX input to phono use. A Rear panel switch
sets up for one turntable for LP and one for 78s, or one turntable for
both types of record. If desired, connect the output of the preamp
directly to a computer sound card. It is designed for both home as well
as broadcast and studio applications.
The preamp also applies accurate “record compensation” in the form of
the RIAA curve or the most common 78 RPM record curve. Actually,
this 78 curve is almost a perfect match for early London/Decca FFRR, and
many non-NAB broadcast transcriptions. This equalization
curve is adjustable with the front panel Equalization switch. This
adjusts the relative levels of bass and treble to match that of modern
records or of vintage 78s and early radio broadcast transcriptions.
The iKEY Plus has
a built-in phono preamplifier. So, you can connect a turntable directly
to it via its gold-plated RCA inputs.
