What Bel Canto says it offers with its e.One Phono is a way for perfectionists to enjoy a high degree of adjustability at a sane price. Part of a series of units in the same mid-sized enclosure, the £ 1250 e.One has two banks of DIP switches to adjust both gain and loading. These are accessible via the rear of the unit and thus not first requiring the removal of any lid. Both channels have their own mirrored sets of DIPs as this is effectively a dual-mono design. The jam-packed back panel thus contains RCA phono sockets for L/R inputs with a choice of balanced XLR or single-ended RCA outputs. Then, flanking the phono inputs, are one set each of DIPs containing two switches for gain, with the default suitable for high-output MCs and all MM cartridges, and another per side with four switches for loading.
