Description
Hegel V10 Phono Preamplifier
Unlock everything your turntable and cartridge can deliver.
The Hegel V10 is a high-performance phono preamplifier built for listeners who take vinyl seriously. Designed with a focus on ultra-low noise and precision signal handling, it reveals more detail, space and texture from your records while keeping the presentation clean, stable and natural.
With support for both moving magnet and moving coil cartridges, the V10 gives you the flexibility to match a wide range of cartridge designs. Fine-tune gain and loading to suit your setup, then enjoy a quieter background, clearer vocals, tighter bass definition and more realistic dynamics.
Balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA outputs make integration easy, whether you are building a high-end analogue system or upgrading an existing setup. It is compact, solidly built and designed to disappear into the system while making a clearly audible improvement to vinyl playback.
Ideal for: upgrading turntable systems, optimising MM and MC cartridge performance, and building a serious analogue front end with accurate, low-noise phono amplification.

Hegel V10 Phono Amplifier REVIEW... by Sound Stage Hifi
"What I think we have here is a very, very good phono preamplifier at a price that I believe belies its performance - it betters our, admittedly cheaper, reference by quite a margin - certainly more than the £150 price difference would suggest. It is transparent, detailed, and honest with what it is given by your cartridge, but it doesn't mask any imperfections with a pressing or well-used disc. It has a good range of features including catering for Moving Magnet and Moving Coil cartridges, a subsonic filter that blocks frequencies below 20Hz, gain settings for very low output MC cartridges, and balanced XLR outputs." ... by Hifi Pig (UK)
