Wanted: Pearl2 or Non Plus Ultra Phono Preamp by Hans A. Polak

[Pella1]

Hi,
Im looking to start a new Phono project either with Pearl2 or Non Plus Ultra by Hans A. Polak.


If you have a fully built or partial project taking up space give me a shout.


Thanks.

Hi, I got a pearl version 1, interesed? Matched 2SK170 and a 2SK389, value selected and matched RIAA filter caps.. never left my shoebox

and a toriod power transformer 230Vac to 2x 25Vac

Hello Tschrama!
I like your shoe-box approach, very functional!


The pearl is great! Unfortunately I already have a Pearl and that's what has fueled my quriosity towards the "Non plus Ultra" and Pearl2.

Come on, are there no "non plus Ultra"'s or Pearl2's that are wasting some ones space?

If you already have Pearl why don't you try some other phonostages? I have some PCBs, kits or modules for

Thanks Sachin, I'll take a closer look.



The reason the Pearl2 and "Non plus ultra" tickels my interest is the design effort that's put behind them. They are results of pragmatic meticulous engineering efforts with a specific purpose from two very skilled designers.
