In stock and on permanent demonstration the new Aurorasound VIDA MkII Phono stage. Utterly beguiling and incredible value for money

​

VIDA was released in 2002, after 10years now, its sound, performance and design are well evaluated, and recognised as an outstanding phono stage amplifier in world-wide. VIDA, LCR type equalization system by semiconductor circuit, this was the first approach ever, and still keep the distinguish position. Now, we would like to announce new version VIDA-MkII.

Exterior design is not so much changed, because this design is already perfect and no room for improvement. However internal circuit, PCB, specifications and sonic performance are refined.

​

Features

  1. LCR filter type phono equalizer amplifier. L=inductor, C=capacitor, R=resistor.

  2. To have ideal “L” of RIAA inductor, equivalent DC resistance factor is strictly selected to improve quality factor.Use 4 pieces L. 2 for high range compensation and 2 for low range compensation. Aurorasound logo printed special version made by Lundahl.

  3. Aurora AMP module2 rev4.0, discrete precision and high performance same with VIDA-Supreme.

  4. Optimized signal flow and path by eliminating a wire harness by new print circuit board.

  5. Robustness chassis design against external radio noise and magnetic leakage.

​

By these changes, L/R channel separation is improved +6dB, this is double improvement.

THD+N, Total Harmonic Distortion + Noise factor is improved from 0.028% to 0.012%. Double improved.

Stability and reliability are improved for longer term life. Sonic perforce is enhanced. Fulfilling mid range, clear and tight bass, elegant high range with 3D stereo image.

​

Functions

  1. Input section is changed from MC/MM to Phono-1/Phono-2

  2. MC/MM selectable gain and load impedance for each inputs.

  3. By this change, two MC inputs, two MM inputs or MC/MM inputs are selectable.

  4. MUTE SW is changed to OMRON made, better touch and feel.

  5. RCA jack, rhodium plated on solid brass. ( no changed)

  6. Customized options are available, as well as VIDA.
