Pro-Ject Phono Box S2 MM MC Phono Stage, Black
The original Phono Box S was an international success, combining unrivalled sonics and versatility at a very affordable price. The Phono Box S2 has taken that established design but improved on the sound performance even further.
The Phono Box S2 boasts a sound field with incredible micro-details, dynamics, precision and clearly defined space. By retaining the original models gain, capacitance and impedance adjustments its possible to get this incredible sound performance with almost any modern cartridge - whether it's a Moving Magnet (MM) or Moving Coil (MC) type.
The new S2 casing is a big additional asset to the improved design, as not only does it deliver the highest visual appeal, but it is also sturdy enough to protect the internal circuitry against unwanted interferences and vibrations, which can cause unpleasant listening experiences.
The Phono Box S was considered one of the best options for entry-level phono stages, the Phono Box S2 is designed to set new improved standards at the same price point.
Moving Magnet and Moving Coil phono stage

Switchable input impedance/capacitance
Four adjustable gain levels
Audiophile-grade amplification modules
Audiophile-grade polypropylene WIMA capacitors
Switchable Subsonic filter –12dB @ 20Hz

Pros
Excellent sound, the ability to adjust to the cartridge
Minuses
Not quite convenient control of sensitivity, a large gap between the values in the middle.
Review
I bought myself this device for the New Year. Before that I studied the characteristics of this apparatus for a long time. He took it and did not regret it. It works in the tract from the PRO JECT Debut 3 ESPRIT DC player and a pre -implicant with a captain of the technician 1000. The sound is very full -fledged, very pleasant, real vinyl, with an open middle, soft tops, a dense bottom. The middle is just amazing! The sound scene is three -dimensional. Even the JBL LX 700 AKUSTIC with titanium twitter sounds beautiful. By setting, I can advise very scrupulously to the phasing of the power supply. With improper phasing, the sound will be tied to the columns, but with a turn of 180 degrees, correctly set the power supply in the outlet, get 3 measuring sound with excellent detail. Be sure to select the level of sensitivity. For example, I installed it experimentally for my Om OM OM 10 e sensitivity in 43 dB, of course you can install 60 dB, but then it will be necessary to set the volume on the amplifier at 7 hours. It is a pity that there are no installations on sensitivity regulators at 50 and 53 dB, as on DS 2 and Tube Box S 2, it is a little not convenient. The resistance is standard for most mm heads of 47 kOhm. As I put it. I don't touch it. You can "play" with the capacity. At first I installed 200 PF, then experimentally stopped at 320 PF. 420 PF is too much, the sound turns out to be quite caustic, with sibltion at high frequencies. Naturally, you need to select a cable strapping under the devices so that each component of the system can realize itself. I recommend this phonor -corrector for all music lovers! He plays with a bang of the music of any style, the sound of instruments is natural, with the right timbre, magnificent bottoms and a beautiful middle. Soft tall. With a good cable (not necessarily expensive) it sounds very richly, revealing the whole charm of vinyl sound. The transparage apparatus!

Pros
Good detail, dense natural bottom
Minuses
There is no price for such a price
Review
I bought a torrent for the player. I was afraid that at this price the sound could be mediocre.
But the sound was more surprising than disappointed. The phonor -corrector gives a dense assembled bass, a detailed top and a three -dimensional scene, and sounds clearly more than its price. In addition, the sound is very rhythmic, and clear. Good device. I recommend.
