PROZORPhono Preamp - Preamplifier with Volume Control Stereo M/M Turntable Amplifier RCA Input & RCA 3.5mm Output Pre AMP Phono Preamplifier for Turntable with 12V 1A Power Adapter for Record Player

When the light went out for good on my Rotel two channel stereo amplifier I was given a Pioneer VSX-C402 AV Receiver that my father no longer wanted as a substitute until I could buy something better, however, when listening to CD's through the Pioneer I was quite surprised just how good it sounded through two channels, so decided to keep it as my permanent amp and save money in the process during these hard pressed times, as I was needing to shell out between £300-350 for a new stereo amp.There was one problem though, and that was the Pioneer AV amp nor my Rega Planer 2 has a phono stage so I couldn't play my vinyl, so purchased the Prozor Phono Preamp to enable that to happen.This is a great piece of kit for the cash outlay in terms of build with it's all metal case construction combined with the fact that it's totally silent in operation and I crank it over half way along with my amp.Honestly, when connected between my Rega Planer 2, Pioneer amp driving Wharfdale Diamond 9.0s it sounds as good as my defunct Rotel: I can't hear a noticeable difference in sound quality and trust me when I say that Sammy Hagar, Ted Nugent and Gary Moore have never sounded so good through my current system!!!

I've had this for just over a year and, for the price, it's been great! It's connected to a Pioneer PL12D TT and works perfectly - the volume knob is a nice addition.

Great little preamp I got to use headphones, does the job well for the price

It seems like a very good device. It claims 60dB of gain (which is much better than many others which only achieve 40dB). Well designed and quickly deliveredSadly, it seems 60dB is still not enough for my Onkyo CD input (the forums suggest I may need some 76dB for my magnetic cartridge - and as far as I can see, no one makes an RIAA preamp with this level of gain - perhaps a gap in the market here)!But as far as I can tell, a good product at a good price.

What a little gem! Very compact and solid little unit ideal if space is an issue. Headphone jack is a bonus as my Philips stereo bizarrely doesn't have one. Yes a top branded amp at £200+ will undoubtedly be better when you crank it up, but if you can afford one of those then why are you reading up on something that only costs 25 quid. Can't fault this for the price.

Easy to set up but only worked on one sideI assumed it was turntable issues , having got turntable checked it was the pre amp fault.

It work brilliant on my old Phillips record deck to my Phillips mldi hifi system. Great to be be playing my vinyl album collection that av had for 50 years and they sound great

Recently bought this to set up with my turn table & speakers. Works well, delighted.
