Lehmannaudio Decade Jubilee Phono Preamplifier: The Ultimate for Audiophiles
Introducing the Lehmannaudio Decade Jubilee, the phono preamp that takes your vinyl experience to the next level. Designed by the renowned Lehmannaudio, this preamp delivers superior sound quality that’s second to none. Combining advanced technology with a passion for perfecting musical playback, the Decade Jubilee is the ideal choice for discerning vinyl enthusiasts.
Exceptional Technology
The Decade Jubilee builds on the technical foundation of Lehmannaudio’s flagship Silver Cube, but takes it a step further. Its dual-mono design with six relays ensures unparalleled channel separation and signal integrity, resulting in a detailed and natural sound. The four-layer PCB with dual ground planes minimizes unwanted noise and interference, ensuring you hear the purest sound from your vinyl.
The Power of Components
The Decade Jubilee features Mundorf tin-foil capacitors for passive RIAA correction, a technology known for delivering crystal-clear, detailed audio reproduction. With parallel transistors in the output stage, it provides fast slew rate and wide bandwidth, delivering dynamic range and micro-detail that captures the true essence of music—whether it’s the live performance or subtle details of the recording.
Refined Sound Performance
The Decade Jubilee’s sound is natural, relaxed, and exceptionally precise. Its laid-back presentation of high and low frequencies creates a realistic spatial experience, making it perfect for everything from live jazz to complex rock productions. Whether it’s Keith Jarrett’s Köln Concert or the swirling guitars of Tame Impala, this preamp reveals every detail with stunning accuracy.
A Winning Choice for Audiophiles
The Decade Jubilee is more than just a phono preamp—it’s an investment in audiophile perfection. When paired with a high-quality MC cartridge, the Decade Jubilee unlocks a new world of microdynamics, bringing into focus spatial relationships between instruments, voices, and the listener. It gives you the feeling that you’re listening directly from the mixing studio, with every detail captured exactly as intended by the artist.
