ART Vinyl Mix

Phono Preamp with Bluetooth and Stereo Audio Switching

The ART Vinyl Mix is a compact moving magnet (MM) phono preamp and stereo audio switcher designed to connect turntables, analog audio devices, and Bluetooth sources to modern sound systems. Featuring four selectable stereo inputs, balanced and unbalanced line outputs, and dedicated headphone monitoring, it offers flexible connectivity for vinyl enthusiasts, home audio systems, and studio setups. Its hybrid passive RIAA correction circuit, Burr-Brown op amps, and 32-bit Burr-Brown DAC deliver clear, detailed audio from analog and digital sources.

ART Vinyl Mix Competitive Differences

• Four Selectable Stereo Inputs: Switch between RCA phono, RCA line, 1/8-inch Aux, and Bluetooth sources using one compact device.
• Moving Magnet Phono Preamp: Built-in MM cartridge preamplification with hybrid passive RIAA correction for accurate vinyl playback.
• Burr-Brown Audio Circuitry: Burr-Brown operational amplifiers and a 32-bit Burr-Brown DAC support detailed audio reproduction.
• Bluetooth 5 Receiver: Stream audio wirelessly from compatible Bluetooth devices.
• Balanced and Unbalanced Outputs: Stereo balanced 1/4-inch TRS and unbalanced RCA connections accommodate different audio systems.
• Simultaneous Stereo Outputs: Use the 1/4-inch TRS and RCA outputs together to connect multiple audio devices.
• Fixed-Level RCA Output: Maintain a constant RCA output level while independently adjusting the listening level through studio monitors or headphones.
• Compact Construction: A steel base with a plastic top provides a practical enclosure for desktop and home audio installations.

ART Vinyl Mix Description

The ART Vinyl Mix combines phono preamplification, wireless audio reception, and stereo source switching in a compact desktop unit. Its four selectable inputs make it easy to integrate a turntable with other audio sources, including RCA line-level equipment, portable devices connected through the 1/8-inch Aux input, and compatible Bluetooth devices. This flexibility makes it suitable for home listening systems, studio monitoring, and audio setups that combine traditional vinyl playback with digital music sources.

For vinyl playback, the built-in moving magnet phono preamp uses a hybrid passive RIAA correction circuit to reproduce records with the appropriate frequency response. Burr-Brown operational amplifiers support accurate analog signal processing, while a 32-bit Burr-Brown DAC handles digital-to-analog conversion for Bluetooth audio. With a phono frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz within +/- 0.5 dB and an A-weighted dynamic range of 80 dB, the phono section is designed for detailed music reproduction.

Flexible output connections allow the unit to work with powered studio monitors, audio interfaces, hi-fi receivers, and headphones. The balanced stereo 1/4-inch TRS outputs and unbalanced RCA outputs can operate simultaneously, allowing audio to be routed to multiple devices. The RCA output maintains a fixed level, enabling independent listening-level adjustment through the monitor or headphone outputs while providing a consistent signal to another connected device.

Built with a steel base and plastic top, the Vinyl Mix measures approximately 5 x 5 x 1.5 inches and weighs just 1 lb, making it suitable for compact desktops, listening stations, and space-conscious audio installations. Its included universal 12V DC power supply supports 100-240V AC operation at 50-60 Hz, allowing convenient integration into a variety of audio environments.
