Pro-Ject Phono Box S2
A high-quality small RIAA equalizer for MM and MC boxes with truly versatile adjustments.
Phono Box S2 - sets new standards for entry level turntable preamps
The Phono Box S was one of our favourites, offering unparalleled sound and versatility at a very affordable price. When we set out to create the successor, the Phono Box S2, it had to have exactly that, but with even better sound. The Phono Box S2 delivers incredible micro-detail, dynamics and precision with a soundstage that is usually found in much more expensive products. The new S2-style housing is made of an aluminium/metal sandwich construction, and not only offers high-quality aesthetics, but also excellent protection against unwanted electromagnetic interference and vibrations. This ensures a worry-free listening experience. The switches on the bottom of the device allow you to fine-tune the sound to your liking and adapt the Phono Box S2 to any available phono cartridge!
Many respected hi-fi magazines considered the Phono Box S to be the best option of all beginner turntables, and the Phono Box S2 is sure to follow in its predecessor's footsteps and set new standards in this price range!
