Simaudio introduced the second generation of the popular integrated amplifier MOON 250i , which received the suffix v 2 . For the first time, this amplifier features a built-in phono stage for use with Moving Magnet (MM) cartridges. Otherwise, the model has retained its minimalism – there are still no digital inputs that are now fashionable.
According to the manufacturer, the Simaudio MOON 250i v2 amplifier “uses next-generation semiconductors that promise higher sound quality, along with patented MOON bipolar output transistors for improved bass response and accurate music reproduction . “
In addition to the phono stage input, the Simaudio MOON 250i v2 integrated amplifier offers five analog line inputs, including a front panel mini-jack connector for quick connection of mobile gadgets. The novelty is also equipped with a stereo output from a pre-amplifier and a headphone jack.
