Pro-Ject Phono Box DS2
Pro-Ject DS2 Premium class phono pre-amplifier with MM & MC capability
The Phono Box DS2 is a highly adjustable phono preamplifier suitable for a wide variety of MM and MC cartridges. With the ability to switch easily between various impedance, capacitance and gain settings, this is easily one of the most user-friendly phono stages capable of delivering a high-end sound.
The sophisticated internal design takes inspiration from other high-end Pro-Ject Phono Box models, incorporating features like its dual-mono circuitry, precise RIAA equalisation and the use of low-noise ICs. The circuit design is also very linear, to ensure the best possible sound from a minimalistic PCB. With its high value sonics and reasonable price the DS2 is a definite audiophile bargain.
The casing is made of a durable aluminium metal sandwich construction, as well as giving a premium look it also effectively protects against electromagnetic interference and vibrations.
