## Description

Product Description Setting new standards for entry level phono stages! Phono Box S was one of our favourite products, it offered unrivalled sonics and versitality at a very low budget. When we started creating Phono Box S2, its successor, it had to have exactly that but improve on sound even further. Phono Box S2 features incredible micro-details, dynamics and precision with a soundstage usually found in much more expensive products. The new S2 style housing is made of an aluminium/metal sandwich construction and not only offers highest aesthetics but also out-standingly protects it from unwanted electromagnetic interferences and vibrations. This guarantees for an undisturbed listening experience without worries. The switches on the bottom of the unit allow fine tuning the sound to your preferences and adjusting Phono Box S2 to any available cartridge! Phono Box S was considered the best option of all entry-level phono stages by many acclaimed hifi magazines, Phono Box S2 is sure to follow its predecessor‘s footsteps and will set new standards. Compatible upgrade power supply: Accu Box S2 Settings for MM, f.e. 2M Red Input gain 40dB, input capacitance 200pF, input impedance 47kohm Settings for High-Output MC, f.e. X5-MC Input gain 43dB, input capacitance 420pF, input impedance 47kohms Settings for Low-Output MC, f.e.

Review: Significant upgrade of sound - I had been using a cheap preamp for my project evo carbon vinyl player. This came today and I have noticed a significant upgrade in sound quality. Sound has much more depth and really fills the room. Pleased with my purchase.
