Reflex MC

With a new season, comes a new product, but in the now familiar very popular Graham Slee housing, The Reflex MC. This is to compliment the range of RIAA phono stages on offer, and for those users not wanting to go the separate two box route using a separate stage amplifier (for example the Elevator EXP) before the RIAA phono stage, the new Reflex MC is the one box solution to have.

The Reflex builds on all the knowledge gained by Graham Slee on his higjyl acclaimed Elevator EXP and incorporates this along with all the latest European legislation into its superb design. These are True ROHS designs unlike some other we expereinced recently that contained illegal Elna stargarte and blackcap,

The Rflex MC bringing what some cartridge manufacturers describe as the "best sounding solid state Phono pre amp, money can buy, period" to the public at large, at a very affordable price. We have to agree, matching this with Koetsu, Dynavector and VDH cartrdges Graham really does know his phono stages.

Graham Slee Reflex Phono StageThe Reflex pre amp incorporates a cutter head 'knee' and low input capacitance to compensate for groove and cartridge phase displacement, thereby restoring harmonic information. Phase error is virtually non-existent due to an extremely wide and stable 150Khz bandwidth. Dual regulator power filtration is afforded through a PSU1 24 watt peak capacity power supply and the Reflexs' built-in regulator system.

"It has been through a deeper exploration of stability in the context of our wide bandwidth designs that the REFLEX has come into being. The way it has told us it is right, is through the musicians and singers - the way they have become "unstuck" from one another. The REFLEX has the ability to separate the performers further than before, but still keeps the togetherness or cohesiveness of the performance. It can enable you to hear that missing word while still hearing the instrumental accompaniment - that's what stability with wide bandwidth does - and nothing else can."
