The MP-P201 uses the same discrete gainstage modules developed for the MP-L201, however, it has been optimized for a much lower noise level. This is essential in order to keep a very high musical performance with even the lowest output cartridges available on the market today.

Gain selection on the MP-P201 mk2 is based on the output voltage from the cartridge. This is the most effective and optimal way of ensuring a perfect balance between the cartridge and the phonostage. Setting the correct load has also been made as user friendly as possible. Direct selection of values between 10Ω to 47KΩ from the front panel is available without having to change any internal or external modules.
The external power supply that comes with the MP-P201 is shared with the MP-L201 and gives the first extreme level of line regulation. This ensures the lowest possible noise level, even before the supply reaches the actual phono stage circuitry.
The updated mainboard in the amplifier integrates the same high-quality level of regulation as the PSU and further enhances the silence of the soundstage.
