The new Rogue Audio RP-5 v2 preamplifier design borrows technology from the RP-7, RP-9, RH-5 and Triton II. The volume circuitry uses technology from the RP-7 and RP-9 making it quieter and giving it more steps for finer control. The phono stage is directly derived from the circuitry of the Triton II making it the best phono stage ever in a Rogue preamplifier. The headphone circuit borrows from the RH-5, with both improved sound and power it will get the best performance from even the most difficult to drive headphones. Other upgrades include an OLED display for better contrast and an optical rotary encoder for smoother volume knob operation. The onboard MM/MC phono has user adjustable gain settings ranging from 40 to 60 dB. A wide variety of loading options means your favorite cartridge can be configured to sound its very best. A tube based headphone circuit offers smooth and detailed sound for your late night personal audio sessions. Other features include home theater inputs, a processor loop and mono button. The ten button remote allows you to conveniently access volume, balance, selector, mute, mono and on/off from your listening position.
