MANNVS II - Step-Up Transformer for MM/MI Cartridges with Integrated Phase Equalizer and Balanced output
The new MANNVS II unites two modules from the EQVES series — the EQVES MANNVS 1:2 step-up transformer
and the CVRRVS Phase Equalizer.
Built into the new universal FUCHS chassis, it also introduces a balanced output,
enabling seamless connection to high-end phono stages with balanced inputs.
The second generation MANNVS II is designed for audiophiles who want to unlock the full potential of their MM/MI cartridges.
Features
Balanced Interface Matching
• 1:2 isolation transformer converts unbalanced signals to balanced form.
• Complete galvanic ground isolation.
• Eliminates hum & ground loops.
• Superior common-mode noise rejection.
Gain Optimization
• +6 dB clean voltage gain.
Integrated Switchable Phase Equalizer
• Selectable RL network cancels out the cartridge’s inductive lag.
• Restores phase coherence and flattens frequency response.
Noise Immunity & Isolation
• Full galvanic separation from phono stage.
• Strong protection against EMI/RFI interference.
• Suppression of motor hum and ground differentials.
FUCHS Universal Chassis
• Optimized shielding design.
• Flexible grounding options.
• Improved mechanical stability.
The result: maximum clarity, coherence, and realism from your favorite MM/MI cartridges — with a new level of control and refinement.
