Sound improvement

5 Stars
Posted Sunday, July 31, 2022 by Vlad Great pre-amp I do have improvement in sound separation. I switched stock installed JJ tube to my lovely Telefunken ECC83 and wow, it’s sounds even better now. I don’t use subsonic filter since I have both Hi and Low filters on my both Marantz receivers. This is my second Pro-Ject pre amp I also have the DS tube box MKI. I do like both.

Also a very good service with fast free delivery.

Posted Saturday, February 21, 2015 by Anonymous I bought this after scouring for reviews online and reading universal praise, not only for this item, but all of DB Systems products.

This phono preamp is definitely not a showpiece, and is housed in an unpretentious simple box that has a sort of "prototype" appearance. It's no frills- no nonsense, but what really matters is what it can do.

What this preamp can do is kill giants. Noise floor is super low, and I hate to say it, but it blows away my slightly more expensive Parasound Z Phono. It produces warm, accurate, balanced sound in my relatively inexpensive system (ProJect Debut Carbon and Epos Epic 2 speakers). Also made in the U.S.A by the same guy who engineered it.

Posted Sunday, April 10, 2005 by John Greenstreet I recently bought a new 7.1 channel A/V receiver that, unlike most, actually included a phono input. Digital and other line-level sources sounded fantastic, but it seemed that all my vinyl had lost its magic. One of the most obvious problems was that the existing phono stage didn't have enough gain, so I often had the volume all the way up, which meant there was also a lot of noise from the amplifier itself.

This unit solved all my problems. The gain is very high, lowering the overall system noise floor, and the response is ruler-flat. Now my entire collection sounds better than ever before. An added bonus is that I now hear (and feel) ultra-low bass that was simply not previously evident. I shudder to think how much more one would have to spend to audibly improve upon the performance of this preamp.
