Review: Project phono box - Excellent and cost effective way to put vinyl records back in your life if your amp does not have a turntable (phono) input. It simply pre amplifies the turntable output to the level suitable for any line level (cd, dvd, tuner, etc) source. Has a binding post for the earthing lead some turntables require (ie my 32 yr old dual CS505). Sound quality is fine and exactly what I remember from using the turntable through previous amplifiers. It also works well with my new Rega turntable. Thoroughly recommended! PS only suitably for moving magnet, (MM), cartridges, which is what all budget to £1000 turntables are supplied with. You would expect to use something far more esoteric if you had a moving coil cartridge anyway.
Review: Great piece of kit. - I was using a cheap battery operated pre amp before buying the Project. The main problem on the battery powered one was that the treble was a bit harsh and sibilant. I connected the project Preamp to my Project record deck, attached the ground lead and tried it out. Excellent sound. Rich bass, good midrange, and good treble. No sibilance at all. Also no hum, as I see other people have experienced. Well worth the cost compared to my previous pre amp. You get what you pay for, I guess.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Want to connect pro-ject vt to Sonos play 5, is this what I need?**
A: Yes, this will allow you to connect your turntable to a Sonos Play 5. You'll just need a 2 RCA to 3.5 jack cable to run from the pre-amp to the play 5.

**Q: Will this connect to the 5 pin tape input in a 1970's decca sound turntable?**
A: The input/output connectors on this pre-amplifier are RCA Phono. If you have a 5 pin DIN output on your turntable you would need a cable with 5 pin DIN at one end and Phono on the other. If you can source one of these then it should work.

**Q: Can I use an Aux cable with this?**
A: Hello Nolan, Thanks for the enquiry, you would generally use an AUX cable/phono cable/RCA cable to connect this into an AMP or HIFI. The cable from the turntable is generally fitted to the deck.  Any further questions please let us know. Kind Regards, Sales

**Q: what is the output of the amp?**
A: My understanding is that the amp does not have any output it simply converts the signal from a turntable to one which your current amplifier can then read, therefore you will get the normal performance from your existing amplifier. Mine works well. Hope this helps. J.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple Excellence
*by M***P on 29 May 2014*

I bought this unit based on reading the excellent reviews (avoiding the cheaper units available as advised) to transfer my vinyl to digital having unsuccessfully tried several routes involving USB soundcards PCs etc. I bought this together with a Roland R05 digital recorder, connected my Pioneer 512 fitted with Ortofon FF15e via good quality cables to the R05 and Instant success!! The sheer quality of this pre-amp (no hum or interference; superb S/N ration) gives a clear signal perfect as the line input for the R05. As the R05 can record directly to Mp3 job done with outstanding results. I would give this 10 stars if I could!
