Class A valve operation and removing the need for a phase splitter, which introduces unnecessary crossover distortion. The Audio Note amplifier range does not make use of any kind of feedback. As a result, they were neither designed for vanishingly small harmonic or low intermodulation distortions, but instead for minimal non-harmonic and time base anomalies.
The phono input is suitable for connection to a turntable with a moving magnet (MM) type cartridge. Turntables with moving coil (MC) type cartridges will require a step- up transformer between the turntable and the pre-amplifier; Audio Note produce some of the best step-up transformers available.
