Stealth SP-1 Input Selector and Phono Preamp

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the new Stealth SP-1 Input Selector and Phono Preamp.
The Emotiva Stealth SP-1 is a totally new type of audio component. The SP-1 is
designed to work with your current analog preamp to expand its input capabilities
dramatically. The SP-1 is connected to any available line-level stereo input on your
current preamp. The SP-1 upgrades that single analog input to three line level inputs
and a phono input, passively switched by precision control relays. The SP-1's internal
high performance low noise precision phono preamp supports both moving magnet and
moving coil cartridges.
The Stealth SP-1 can be used with any analog preamp with an available stereo line
level input, or it can be used with our Control Freak passive level control, but it was
specifically designed to complement our Stealth DC-1 DAC. When the SP-1 is paired
with the DC-1 via its analog input, the two together form a modular system, which
offers a total of one phono input, three line level analog inputs, and a full complement
of five digital inputs - two Coax S/PDIF inputs, one Toslink input, one AES/EBU
input, and one high-performance USB input. The DC-1 provides both balanced and
unbalanced stereo analog outputs, and a precision low noise volume control. The
complete system is operated by the DC-1's remote control, and offers performance
matching the best analog and digital separates.
The Stealth SP-1; turn your DC-1 into a high performance modular audio system.
Happy listening!
