New IKEDA Sound Labs IST-201 step-up transformer / Ships from Japan

IST-201 is a step-up transformer for low-impedance (1 to 6 ohms) MC cartridges. The transformer body made of high-performance core material is magnetically shielded with high permeability mu-metal and housed in a large shield case with excellent conductivity for complete shielding. The transformer body has a floating structure, and the main chassis (machined from solid aluminum) has legs made of Getzner's anti-vibration material (Ostoria) to prevent it from being affected by internal and external vibrations. To improve resolution and characteristics, high-precision VISHY S-102K termination resistors are used on the secondary side of the transformer.

This provides stable characteristics even with changes in connection cables and load impedance. To prevent the effects of shielding, which cannot be ignored with weak signals such as MC cartridges, rhodium-plated machined RCA jacks are mounted on an insulating plate. Low-impedance MC cartridges can reach their full potential by using a good quality MC transformer. The IST-201 is a transformer with low internal loss, so it can be used with various low-impedance MC cartridges, including the IKEDA9 series, to enjoy excellent sound.
