Built on the technical prowess of our Brilliance dual stereo input phono preamp, Radiance sports a single stereo phono input with the same amazing low noise, low distortion, accurate reproduction of vinyl. The laser engraved 5mm thick solid aluminum chassis houses a new generation of custom electronics to deliver a classic sound stage and musical presence with the ease of full parametric control of all aspects of reproduction using a wifi based remote.
Sit in the comfort of your listening chair and fine tune cartridge loading as you listen to the music. No fiddling with switches or jumpers on the rear panel or worse, inside the chassis, to adjust to the optimum load resistance and capacitance for your cartridge and cabling. Unmatched vinyl reproduction with the ease and convenience of streaming and the lowest noise floor you never heard.
Radiance is available in brushed black or aluminum to best complement your audio system.
- Inputs are balanced, with high input impedance and very low noise. At the highest gain setting (an amplification factor of over 3000), low noise is very important and noise is lower than the noise contributed by the vinyl itself.
- Capacitive and resistive loading are remotely switchable so you can sit in your listening chair to evaluate the proper load for your cartridge. There is no need to shut off the phono preamp, get out of your chair and fiddle with little rear panel switches, no adding components via screw terminal or worse, opening the case to change loading. The remote control also allows setting gain and even changing from moving magnet (MM) to moving coil (MC) gain ranges. Once everything is set, you can lock the settings to prevent accidentally changing them.
- One RCA stereo input pair is available, and can be set for MM or MC. Load settings are updated and saved, and can be locked.
- There is a mute (via remote control), in case you need to take a call or converse with someone.
- Radiance uses 40 custom optically isolated analog switches (Octal Opto) to control capacitive and resistive cartridge loading, gain and cartridge type (MC/MM) switching.Octal Optos also disconnect the outputs whenever anything is switched, to mute any switching transients.
- Radiance is direct coupled from input to output because a direct coupled signal path (with no coupling capacitors) delivers the deepest, tightest, most chest thumping bass reproduction. Direct coupling also amplifies any DC offset; The circuit uses a servo correction loop to null DC offset and make direct coupling possible.
- Servos, because they operate at very low frequency, have long stabilization times at power on. Belleson solved that by adding a unique hardware servo accelerator that keeps the start-up transient small and allows fast settling. You get the best of both worlds—bone-rattling bass with no turn-on thumps.
- The Wifi Hifi remote control is a browser based app, so it runs on any device with a web browser.
- Wifi Hifi can be connected into your local wifi network, so you can control Radiance from your own tablet, from your phone or from your music server where your other music services are running.
