Soulnote E-2 v2 Phono Equalizer

£6,900.00

The Soulnote E-2 Version 2 is a reference-grade phono equalizer designed for listeners who want complete flexibility without sacrificing musical purity. Drawing directly from Soulnote’s flagship E-3, it combines a dedicated optical cartridge input with highly refined MC and MM stages, all built around fully balanced, non-feedback analogue circuitry.

With enhanced mechanical design and expanded cartridge matching options, the E-2 v2 delivers vinyl playback with exceptional realism, openness, and emotional depth.

“The E-2 ver.2 has a real knack for revealing tone, be that from instruments or voices and revels in the more textured timbres.”

Soulnote E-2 v2 Phono Equaliser

Key Features:

  • Dedicated Optical Cartridge Input
    Uses the same XLR connector and separated power supply architecture as the E-3 to maximise the advantages of optical cartridges.

  • E-3 Derived New Type-R Analogue Circuit
    Fully balanced, non-NFB analogue stage implemented directly from the flagship model for uncompromised fidelity and musical expression.

  • Refined MC/MM Circuitry
    Simplified signal path with a newly developed bias circuit delivers higher clarity, lower noise, and improved overall performance.

  • Enhanced Chassis Design
    Unfixed top cover construction, refined from the A-2 Ver.2, improves resonance control and sonic purity.

  • Extended Cartridge Compatibility
    MC loading now supports up to 1 kΩ, with wide MM capacitance options for precise system matching.

  • Advanced Equalisation Flexibility
    Fully adjustable EQ curves retained from the original model, allowing fine-tuning beyond standard RIAA.
