NY Audio Show 2013

Hagerman Kicks It Up More Than a Few Notches With Trumpet Reference MC/MM Phono Preamplifier

Michael Fremer  |  Apr 15, 2013

Spotted in the Wes Bender Audio room the new (Jim) Hagerman Trumpet Reference MC/MM phono preamplifier. Uses 12AX7 and 12AU7 tubes. Features both MC and MM inputs with a wired remote control for all adjustment functions also available on front panel.

The Trumpet Reference features fully balanced differential, zero feedback class "A: operation, adjustable gain up to 70dB for MC input (using balanced JFET input), four EQ curve choices and more. Retail is $7200. If it sounds as good as it looks it will sound fantastic!

Hi Mikey,

it would be nice to read your review about this little one, if you will have time between audio shows of course ;-).

It must have been a good feeling taking part in that audio show and more fascinating to hold some recognitions out of your work. - James Stuckey
