Velocity Equalizers An adapter for phono preamps for ceramic cartridges

Did you know that on some stereo receivers, instead of a high impedance input, they used a phono selector switch which was connected to a passive circuit which allowed ceramic cartridges to be used on a standard phono preamp? • Sonotone actually offered a passive adapter called the Velocitone which is basically this, which connected between the turntable and a phono preamp, as they were bold enough to claim the sound quality of their Sonotone 9T cartridge was so good. • This became common to use velocity equalizers on budget amplifiers as moving magnet cartridges were becoming more popular on turntables throughout the 70s and 80s. • This is also my first attempt at post-recording voice dubbing. • Highlights • 0:00 Titlecard • 0:18 Introduction • 0:36 What is a Velocity Equalizer? • 1:00 Two amplifiers with built-in velocity equalizers • 1:12 The Sonotone Velocitone adapter • 1:29 Amplitude response vs Velocity response • 1:50 Limits • 2:08 RCA SA-155 vs Rotel RA-110A (AUE CP-38S Cart)
