Description

This product can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

Theres nothing basic about the basic V2 phono stage. Dont be fooled by its cool, minimalist design. Within that sleek aluminum casing (with silver or black anodized finish) lies an inner world of highly refined features. Its predecessor, the basic plus, was a multi-award winner and with the V2 weve taken all of that coveted Plus technology up a notch.

On the outside, Clearaudio has kept it very simple. Theres just one visible control, a single power switch on the upper surface that opens up a raft of possibilities. On the underside you can switch between moving coil and moving magnet mode. From there, you can easily enjoy the basic V2 with almost any high-end phono cartridge without making any further adjustments.

Or, you can choose from a range of performance enhancing settings to fine-tune its parameters to your system and your hearts content. An optional subsonic filter attenuates any unwanted low frequency noise, while RIAA equalization accuracy is within 0.1 dB.

All of which adds up to the basic V2 being the perfect all-rounder for both audiophiles and music lovers.
