It begins with six discreet soft-keys, a crisp, entrancing matte display, and a solid tactile volume knob gracing the lacquered faceplate of the MBL N11 Vorverstärker. Aesthetic heaven? Naturally. But what is beauty without brains? MBL’s SmartLink 2.0 delivers a system network that synchronizes all Noble Line components connected to the N11 preamplifier.

The N11 back panel offers a brawny array of choices, with up to five pairs of XLR jacks, nine gold-plated pairs of RCA jacks, and two sets of output groups. For your vinyl collection, the N11 comes with an optional on-board MC phono module, which can be custom loaded at MBL’s production facilities to impeccably match your turntable, tonearm and cartridge. Sophisticated mechanical design regulates the listening volume. Perfect balance between left and right channel output i
