Lehmann Audio Black Cube SE II – MM/MC Phono Stage with PWX Power Supply

The Black Cube SE II represents the evolution of the award-winning Black Cube SE, enriched with significant improvements both technically and aesthetically. Based on the renowned audio circuitry of the SE series, this new model introduces high-quality connectors, a refined design and a fully adjustable bass filter, allowing you to optimize the sound response to your preferences.

The result is an even more precise, natural and immersive sound: the quality of the Black Cube series reaches its maximum level here.

Tailored listening experience

Owning a Black Cube SE II means experiencing music with unprecedented depth. Every sonic detail is reproduced with astonishing clarity, giving the feeling that each song was specifically designed for the listener.

The ability to customize the setup to your listening habits makes this phono stage unique, capable of perfectly adapting to any musical style.

Universal compatibility and flexibility

The Black Cube SE II is compatible with most turntable systems, from high-output MM (Moving Magnet) turntables to low-output MC (Moving Coil) models.

Each channel features a slot for installing custom impedances without the need for soldering, and a plug-in connector that allows quick and flexible changes for maximum configuration freedom.

Precision audio technology

The high-precision passive RIAA filter, placed between two linear gain stages, uses close-tolerance polypropylene capacitors, ensuring a uniform response. crystal-clear dynamics, with extremely faithful transients and timbres.

Like the other models in the Lehmann Audio family, the SE II also uses the latest generation of professional input stages, capable of delivering a clean, quiet and powerful signal.

The double-sided sound card and the electrical noise and high-frequency interference suppression modules ensure stable and noise-free sound reproduction.

PWX External Power Supply

The PWX power supply is equipped with a custom-made shielded toroidal transformer, which guarantees safe and stable operation.

Neutrik XLR connectors with gold-plated pins ensure a perfect connection between the audio section and the power supply, while the shielded cable minimizes interference.

The non-magnetic aluminum enclosures with damped covers further improve mechanical stability and reduce external noise, offering reliable performance even in the most demanding environments.

Design and finishes

With its elegant and refined front panel, the Black Cube SE II combines aesthetics and technology in a single hi-fi component of excellence. An object capable of not only enhancing the system, but also visually enriching any listening environment.
