ART DJ PRE II Phono Preamplifier with 12V Adapter

ART DJPREII PHONO
Phono Equalizer Amplifier
Suggested Retail Price: ¥11,000 (¥10,000 excluding tax)

This is an extremely cost-effective product. Its high resolution makes it enjoyable to compare the characteristics of different cartridges. The adjustable gain is also a great feature.
The included adapter was for 9V AC, but replacing it with a 12V DC adapter within the specified range clearly added richness to the sound, particularly strengthening the low frequencies. I highly recommend trying it.

It's amazing to have adjustable gain at this price. Recording levels vary considerably between records, so you can adjust it to the optimal state. The peak indicator changes from green to red, making it very easy to understand.

Product Description:
Connect your record player to your recording system with high sound quality.
This is a high-quality phono equalizer amplifier. It is used when connecting a record player that does not have a built-in phono equalizer to a recording system or similar device.

The low-noise phono equalizer circuit is highly accurate and precisely follows the RIAA curve.
A unique feature of this unit is the ability to switch the input capacitance between 100pF and 200pF to match the characteristics of your phono cartridge. Additionally, the low-cut filter allows you to remove unwanted subsonic components from the record player without compromising sound quality. With a gain trim knob and clip indicator LED, you can achieve optimal settings even with a wide range of input sources.
