About this deal

I'm not sure if this is the right specs required, so would really appreciate if someone can give me some guidance please. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.

I hooked this preamp up to my Onkyo TX-NR809 receiver in hopes of it being a much better improvement over the built-in phono preamp in the 809. e. over 20dB, ideally over 25dB there is unlikely to be anything off the record that has a higher cutting velocity and therefore cause a playback issue. Mk2 for use in my home studio as I thought it would be better than the deck's internal preamp but this wasn't the case.

Now I'm looking at other improvements such as an upgraded, regulated power supply (12v DC) and possibly some capacitor upgrades, focusing mainly on the ones directly in the signal path. It doesn't matter that the wall wart is unregulated if there's regulation within the unit being powered. That level could differ from record to record, so experiment and listen for what sounds good to you.

Because of this, each time that I wanted to play a record I would have to go over and manually turn UP the volume. This is a review, comparison and detailed measurements of Review and Measurements of u-turn Pluto and ART DJPRE II Phono Preamplifiers. That's why if headroom is even given as a specification point, it's normally quoted at 1kHz, as at other frequencies, the reduced headroom one side of 1kHz on reproduction should be compensated for an increased headroom on the cutting side and similarly for increasing headroom. I bought the ART DJ Pre II for a relatively specific reason - both my record player and my AppleTV (via a bluetooth receiver) were outputting directly to my living room speakers, and the record player signal was MUCH quieter than the AppleTV, even with the AppleTV turned all the way down.

Manfred, when I got my Denon RX-990 I compared it's phono section to my old Grace "Classic" tube phono pre-amp and was shocked to find the Denon out-performed the Grace in every way. Its length of barely more than 10 cm and depth of less than 9 cm also takes up very little space, so it can feel at home in accessory bags and the like when travelling.

The front gain trim control and signal / clip LED allow you to optimize the preamp's gain for a wide range of input sources. The DJ PRE II (formerly named the “Phono MicroPRE”) acts as an interface between your turntable and your audio recording / playback system.Today, ART offers a range of practical and affordable products for artists, live and studio sound engineers, and even DJs. The ARTcessories line is designed to deliver solutions for a number of audio needs - like having phantom power, having one or two more mixing channels, testing cables, headphone processing, preamplification for microphones and turntables, and many more real-world applications. Housed in an all aluminum black anodized case, the DJ PRE II can be powered by a wide variety of external supplies. When selecting the low-cut filter on DJPRE II, we indeed get a low cut (not as steep as Pluto though) but also a high-cut above 19 kHz or so.

The gain can be controlled on the front and includes a clipping LED that lets you know when your signal is too high. Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). And I should point out that on some records, that point of just before flicker could be at something like 4 or -4 for example. I also tweaked the settings in my receiver, mainly the IntelliVolume setting for the particular input I'm using this preamp in.

The ART DJ Pre II provided a very flexible and clear way of boosting the phono signal to match the volume of the AppleTV.
