Sonnet Morpheus MK-II

Sonnet Morpheus MK-II

Morpheus MK-II is born

Now equipped with an additional -10dB attenuator that allows the Morpheus to be combined as a digital preamplifier with highly sensitive tube designs. Nationally and internationally, the Morpheus is recognised and acclaimed for its unique sound character. A modified version of the Morpheus DAC is used in Haarlem, the Netherlands, where we have one of the most amazing companies in the field of mastering and production of vinyl. "Artone studios" is the place where music can be recorded with both digital and analogue systems. At the "Record Industry", cutting and mastering prior to the vinyl production process is realised. Details of these companies can be found at https://www.artone-studio.com and https://www.recordindustry.com.

 Nowadays, many digital masters are also supplied for conversion to vinyl. To make that conversion possible but next to keep the sound as close as possible to the original recording, a digital to analogue converter is needed that does its work without any artefacts or degradation. Not only productions made in their own recording facility, but also famous and prestigious music labels bring their analog and digital masters to the "Record Industry" to have their productions pressed on vinyl.

 When it comes to analogue equipment, both Artone and the Record Industry have a wide range of equipment with a very high reputation so that the material offered retains its analog character as musicians and producers intended. The Morpheus is used to supply the converted signal to the Neumann VMS80 (lacquer) and VMS82 (DMM) Lathes for DMM cuts.
