Two-tube mu-follower design • MM/MC phono stage • 1W headphone amplifier • Home theater bypass • OLED display • Handcrafted in the USA
The Rogue Audio RP-1 v2 Preamplifier is a compact tube linestage designed to deliver high-end musicality, flexible system integration, and serious value in a single chassis. Built around Rogue Audio’s two-tube mu-follower platform, it combines a refined line stage with a built-in MM/MC phono section, a discrete headphone amplifier, home theater bypass capability, and a simple, elegant user interface centered around an easy-to-read OLED display.
Setup tip: The RP-1 v2 is especially attractive for systems that need both analog flexibility and compact dimensions without giving up the tonal ease of a tube preamp.
Two-tube mu-follower circuit — Rogue Audio’s tube gain architecture is designed for strong linearity and musical expressiveness, using a pair of 12AU7 / ECC802 tubes in the line stage.
Integrated MM/MC phono stage — selectable phono gain and user-adjustable cartridge loading allow better matching to your cartridge without requiring a separate phono preamp.
Headphone and output flexibility — a built-in 1W headphone amplifier plus multiple variable and fixed outputs make the unit suitable for both dedicated listening systems and broader control-center duties.
Practical operating safeguards — slow-start turn-on sequencing and auto-mute during power-up/power-down are designed to support system stability and protect downstream components.
In a properly matched system, the Rogue Audio RP-1 v2 Preamplifier delivers the spaciousness and harmonic ease tube lovers want, with the connectivity and control modern systems require.
