Uesugi is a very famous japanise brand, well known in particular among extreme audiophiles. After many years, now is available again the top quality transformer MC step-up BROS-5.

It's one of the best transformer step-up in the world, but at a very cheap price.

Bros-5 is available in 2 versions, L & H. Version H has less gain, for higher impedance cartridges. Version L has higher gain for very low impedance cartridges.

In particular, Bros 5L is one of the top quality highest gain among all step-up transformer you can find all around the world. Tnanks to its high gain and top quality, very low output MC cartridges are born again. For example, Audio Tekne, Fidelity Research, Immutable Music etc.
