It benefits from our famous open-architecture design that prevents intrusive resonance from coloring and distorting sound. It is clear but not forward, approaching music with tonal balance and cohesive, intelligent soundstaging. Highs are sweet and extended, mids are rich and clear. Bass is full, textured and deep-reaching. There is an understated elegance in its ability to effortlessly portray the whole sonic picture — nothing overdone, nothing underdone. Free of fatiguing distractions, it draws you deeply into the soundstage wherein you can enjoy the most intimate nuances of your favorite recordings. Images are confidently suspended and rife with dynamic allure, always encouraging you keep on listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"otQkpb\" aria-level=\"3\" role=\"heading\" data-animation-nesting=\"\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\" data-sae=\"\"\u003eKey Features and Expert Opinions\u003cspan class=\"txxDge notranslate\" data-wiz-uids=\"vxYTef_s,vxYTef_t\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"vKEkVd\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" data-wiz-attrbind=\"class=vxYTef_r\/TKHnVd\" data-sae=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"KsbFXc U6u95\" data-complete=\"true\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-hveid=\"CAQQAA\" data-complete=\"true\" data-sae=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: Its key feature is a high output voltage of \u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e2.5mV\u003c\/strong\u003e, which allows it to be used with a moving magnet (MM) phono input, eliminating the need for an additional, dedicated MC preamplifier or step-up transformer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-hveid=\"CAQQAQ\" data-complete=\"true\" data-sae=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-complete=\"true\"\u003eSound Quality\u003c\/strong\u003e: Reviewers praise the Songbird for its exceptional vocal and acoustic instrument performance, delivering \"sweet and extended\" highs and a \"full, textured and deep-reaching\" bass.
