The Michell Apollo, paired with the dedicated Muse external power supply, is a reference-grade phono stage designed for discerning vinyl enthusiasts seeking the ultimate in analogue purity and emotional engagement. Precision-machined from solid aluminum billets, the heavy dual enclosures form an impenetrable Faraday cage to eliminate RF interference while dampening micro-vibrations. Inside Apollo, Class A preamplifiers—inspired by high-end studio microphone designs—work in tandem with hand-matched capacitors and a finely tuned passive RIAA network to preserve absolute channel balance and signal fidelity. The separate Muse power supply utilizes a low-noise toroidal transformer, capacitance multiplier technology, and dual-stage filtration to deliver ultra-clean, ripple-free DC power via a custom UK-made silver-plated OFC cable with ChorAlloy-plated XLR connectors. The result is a dead-silent, jet-black background, wide dynamic contrast, and a natural, liquid musicality that reveals the true soul of every vinyl record.
