Skoll F is the highest performance, most flexible, least expensive balanced phono preamp available today. Put it in your system, sit down in your chair, and adjust everything with the included remote control, or get integrated, app-based control with Forkbeard™. You’ll give up nothing to the big-boy phono preamps out there—while keeping a much fatter wallet!

Over the Top Performance
Skoll F is insanely quiet and accurate—and it does this with uber-simple, fully discrete, differential Class A zero feedback gain stages and a fully passive RIAA network. Or, in English, there’s not an op-amp in sight. Skoll’s gain stage is compound JFET-BJT pair running on massive 64V rails for enhanced linearity and freedom from overload. The result is over 100dB signal to noise ratio for 40dB of gain, and up to 70dB of gain on tap.

Flexibility Without Penalty
Is your turntable single-ended or balanced? Don’t worry. There’s no performance penalty for either balanced or single-ended input or output. And with four gain levels, it’s ready for virtually any cartridge, from MM to MC to MI. Add relay-switched inputs for two turntables, plus relay-ladder loading for both R and C values, as well as a switchable passive LF filter, and Skoll delivers all the flexibility you need without penalty. We even went so far as to post-filter the relay power supplies and make the microprocessor turn off when not in use, in order to keep Skoll exceptionally noise- and interference-free.

Adjust Everything from Your Listening Chair
Here’s where it gets good. Skoll F includes an infrared remote control. Or, choose Forkbeard for total system, multi-stack control via your iOS device. You can adjust literally everything from your favorite listening chair.

• Select input: choose balanced or SE input
• Change gain: choose 40, 50, 60, or 70dB
• Change resistive loading: Choose 47k, or 10, 50, 100, or 150 ohms
• Change capacitive loading: choose 50, 100, 150, or 200pF
• Select LF filter: choose no LF filter, or engage the 2-pole/15 Hz passive network

Designed and Built in the USA

By “designed and built in the USA" this is what we mean: the vast majority of the total production cost of Skoll F—chassis, boards, assembly, etc—goes to US companies manufacturing in the US. Our chassis are made in California. Our PCBs are made in California or Utah, and it all comes together in our Corpus Christi facility.

2-Year Warranty, 15-Day Easy Returns

Skoll F is covered by a 2-year limited warranty that covers parts and labor. And if you don’t like your Skoll, you can send it back for a refund, minus 15% restocking fee, within 15 days of receiving it.
