Know before you buy
The 810LP is Moon's flagship reference phono preamp, designed with a dual-mono circuit architecture that ensures complete channel separation. It prioritizes an incredibly low noise floor and extreme transparency, allowing it to extract micro-details from vinyl grooves that lesser stages often mask.
Yes, the 810LP is highly versatile and supports both MM and MC cartridges. It offers extensive user-adjustable settings for gain, impedance, and capacitance, which you can easily configure via the underside of the chassis to perfectly match your specific cartridge's requirements.
The 810LP features an advanced internal power supply design, but it is also compatible with Moon’s external 820S power supply. Adding the 820S provides an even cleaner, more stable power delivery, which further reduces noise and improves the overall soundstage and imaging.
The unit uses a sophisticated, fully balanced circuit path that is specifically engineered to handle the extremely low voltage signals from MC cartridges. By maintaining a balanced signal from input to output, it effectively rejects common-mode noise and interference, preserving the integrity of the signal.
While the 810LP is a high-performance piece of equipment, the setup is straightforward if you know your cartridge's technical specifications. You will need to adjust the DIP switches located on the bottom of the unit to match your cartridge's recommended loading and gain, which is a one-time process during installation.
