The Audioquest AQ 7000 Fe5 is a high-quality phono preamplifier that allows turntables with a moving magnet (MM) cartridge to connect to a preamplifier or integrated amplifier with RCA line-level inputs. The Fe5 refers to the special type of nickel-plated gold RCA connectors used, which are designed to minimize distortion, reduce signal loss, and minimize the introduction of harshness or grain. The AQ 7000 Fe5 also features Audioquest's exclusive low-noise, low-distortion, precision-matched transistors and input amplifiers, along with its VLSC (Very Low-Noise, Specially Configured) circuitry for an even lower noise floor and improved signal-to-noise ratio. Overall, this phono preamp is highly regarded by audiophiles for its exceptional performance, minimal interference, and excellent sound reproduction.
