About this deal

Here’s the next unit by Pyle, and as the unit’s model number suggests, this is a part of the same series as the previous unit we’ve featured. We have state-of-the-art testing facilities in Reading, London and Bath, where our team of experienced, in-house reviewers test the majority of hi-fi and AV kit that passes through our door – including phono preamps (or phono stages). Low cost, high performance, no extraneous extras, only what you need for entry-level audiophile analog sound – that’s the Pro-Ject Phono Box S2 MM/MC phono preamplifier in a nutshell. This has further enhanced low-frequency extension down below 25Hz, delivering accurate bass vibrations at peak performance every time through distortion-free technology. There isn’t a great amount of detail rvealed - the UFO202 settles for an up-front presentation heavy on midrange, rather than digging deep into textures or auxiliary lines.

Tube Box S2 is our very first product to feature a fully discreet circuit design without using any operational amplifiers (OpAmps). Music Tribe with respect to the Software shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Music Tribe. Maybe it's because you first heard the song when someone else played for them, or perhaps they were the first musical memory in your life - either way, this vinyl is unique to us. I know I need two amps to use this with audio gear - a preamp to drive the spring itself, and a recovery amp to bring it back up to a decent level. The old standard for home audio and semi-professional devices is (or was) -10 dBV while professional ones operate at +4 dBu.

Our latest analysis of the music taste of people who like "PP400" shows that it is mostly liked by people who listen to classic rock, electronic or alternative rock and are fans of Pink Floyd, Jimmy Page or Herbie Hancock. When testing the phono preamp out with the Rega Planar 3/Elys record player (it's moving magnet only), we were once again struck by the unit's fast, punchy sound that gives your favourite tracks a real sense of weight and gusto.

There are a lot of renowned companies today that have their roots from Japan, so it’s nice to feature brands that are well-rooted here in the USA like rolls. Some people like a bit more "spice" or grit in their tone, and others prefer something smoother for electronic music production with lots going on under the hood; there's no right answer here.Vinyl replay has never been a major part of its output, and we’ve found past phono stages to be good rather than great. A male fan of The Rolling Stones, Metallica, Herbie Hancock, The Black Keys, Gorillaz and Classic rock, Alternative rock, Metal, Jazz, Blues, Electronic, Opera, Reggae , aged 55 y. Alongside a standard single-ended phono input – something that will be used by the vast majority of decks around – it can also accept a balanced signal in the form of a mini XLR 5-pin connector. By the way, if all else fails, you will find a circuit diagram on most preamplifiers or in the appropriate instructions. The presentation is lively and fun, and actually stays true to the company’s habit of wringing every last penny's-worth of performance from its investment in its products.
