Moving Magnet/Moving Coil Phono preamp with line output
Most of today's amplifiers are built without a specific phono cartridge input. The Phono Box is an ideal phono preamplifier for these hi-fi systems, accepting both MM and MC cartridges. The analogue output of the Phono Box can easily be connected to the line-input of your amplifier.
