Description

R15: Compact MM/MC Phono Preamplifier for Superior Sound Amplification

The R15 stands as an award-winning compact MM/MC phono preamplifier, creating the perfect link between the low-level output of a moving magnet or moving coil phono cartridge and the line-level inputs of your hi-fi system.

Technology
The R15 MM/MC phono preamp is meticulously crafted to amplify the delicate signal from any cartridge it is paired with, ensuring honest fidelity throughout. Housed within our compact three-quarter-sized 15 series cabinetry, the R15 inherits the same precision and craftsmanship evident in the design of the larger and slightly more capable R35 MM/MC phono preamplifier. This meticulous approach allows all circuits to harmonise effectively, resulting in superior sound quality and increased fidelity. Featuring adequate gain to amplify signals from nearly any moving magnet or moving coil phono cartridge, along with highly flexible input adjustment capabilities, the R15 allows for ideal system matching.

The Essence of Scandinavian Design
At Primare, we believe that the appearance and tactile feel of our products significantly enhance the overall user experience. Our commitment to Scandinavian design principles ensures that Primare products embody simplicity, elegance, and user-friendly functionality. A prime example is the discreetly placed standby button within the Primare logo on the faceplate of our R15, R35, and A35.2 models – a testament to the ethos of balance, proportion, and harmony that defines our design philosophy.

System Building
Within the 15 Series, we offer a meticulously curated selection of models to cater to diverse system needs. For instance, an exemplary 15 Series system could comprise the DD15 CD transport, SC15 Prisma preamplifier and network player, I15 analogue integrated amplifier, and R15 MM/MC phono preamplifier, ensuring optimal performance for both analogue and digital sources, alongside an extensive array of connection options.

However, for those not requiring additional digital inputs or MC phono preamplification, or considering budget or size constraints, a system composed of the CD15 Prisma CD and network player with an I15 MM integrated amplifier featuring the MM15 MM phono module offers a compact and reasonably priced alternative. This versatile setup facilitates playback from multiple analogue sources, including vinyl discs, as well as digital discs, stored, or streamed media playback, delivering remarkable power, control, and connection flexibility.
