Urgent order items are products that we do not normally carry on stock, but they are typically held on stock by our European suppliers. Depending on availability, we will seek to order these products quickly, when we have an enquiry. They can therefore be subject to quicker availability times than "Special Order" products.
Special Order items are those that are most often built to order. For these items, we tend to experience longer lead times as we negotiate them into the production line with our suppliers.
The Phonolith combines an enormously ambitious phono preamplifier, a top-class preamplifier and a reference headphone amplifier in one device. Its form factor is unobtrusive, and the audio performance leaves nothing to be desired.
Produced to give convenient access to the hi-fi sector’s most popular playback sources in the modern age, the Phonolith has two inputs. First, the line-level input is designed to work with your favourite digital source, most likely a streaming device. Second, it boasts a high-quality phono stage that’s capable of accommodating the very best turntables and cartridges available today. Both inputs are selected using the switch on the main unit’s front panel.
The phono preamplifier section in the Phonolith offers extensive setting options for cartridge impedance and four different gain settings, allowing for wide compatibility with most turntable systems. It also includes an adjustable filter with three selectable cut-off frequencies to ensure silence in the bass range, where necessary.
Lehmannaudio is well-known for its headphone amplifiers, which are used by internationally renowned mastering studios and sound engineers. The headphone output on the Phonolith is of the highest quality that the company has offered so far, with adjustable output gain to ensure optimal performance even with insensitive headphones. The Phonolith's preamplifier output can easily drive long cable runs and can be connected to any active speakers or power amplifiers, such as the Lehmannaudio Stamp, ensuring that it as flexible to accommodate as possible.
The Phonolith is supplied with a high-quality separate PWX II LZ power supply, housed in a matching chassis, for perfect power delivery and minimal interference with the audio electronics. Both the audio and power supply sections benefit from sturdy metal chassis’ with Lehmannaudio's specially engineered 3S feet underneath, which reliably absorb parasitic resonances.
Henley Says...
The Phonolith combines all the best features Lehmann Audio has to offer, all under the compact chassis of one product.
Due to the convenience of having several functions all under one roof, which in the realm of Hi-Fi would typically be split into separate components, the Phonolith has quickly become my go-to product to travel with on the road, as it makes an excellent accompanying product for demonstrations. The Phonolith can easily slot into an existing system, and fulfil a variety of requirements with simple usability and functionality. Despite all of these attributes being housed into one device, there is no loss or degradation to audio quality as the sound you get from the Phonolith is exactly what we have come to expect from the brand, true audiophile performance.
