I have a high end AV amp and wanted to play my turntable through it..as it did not have Phono connection on it I am using another spare connection point.(Tape) I needed to buy this pre-amp to boost the signal from my turntable to my AV amp,so bought one of these.I am using a 9v battery with mine and must admit there is a slight hum from it,but only noticeable in between tracts of the record,My amp is very powerful it's not a dedicated music amp it's an AV amp but it still works fine and the slight hum is not really a problem,especially as this unit is not a lot of money to buy

Connected the pre amp to my amplifier and record deck. my immediate reaction was that I had not connected something properly as there was a lot of background noise similar to mains hum ad a higher pitched screech. After moving the wires around I disconnected the mains adapter and replaced it with a 9v battery. All the background noise disappeared and the sound came through. The frequency range is not the best though and once I find something better, it will be replaced.

I recently got back into vinyls, and purchased a turntable to run through my semi decent cinema kit. Low and behold I found I needed a preamp. After looking up many models ranging from £20 to in the hundreds, I came across this one. Now, I'm not an audiophile, nor do I have 'top' range gear. So, despite some poor reviews of this, I thought I'd give it a go due to its bargain price. Now, I set it all up today and I am VERY impressed with the sound I'm getting. I'm having no issues with hum via the unit, and I haven't had to set up a ground or anything. It works perfectly, and the sound I get through the cinema kit is fantastic...I quite honestly didn't expect it. If you're getting into vinyl again, and don't have the budget, nor inclination to get top quality gear....this is definitely a must if you need a turntable preamp.Read full review

Bought this so I could use my turntable with my amp which has no phono input. I does the job fine so have got all my vinyl out. You get a small amount of buzzing when volume is high but this disappears when you play the records

Having decided to resurrect my hi-fi turntable I needed a separate pre amp as my current amplifier inputs didn't match. After some internet searching I found there were some options, some in excess of £80 others at a fraction of the cost but both doing the same function. I decided on this unit on price and functionality, its small and works perfectly well, I'm now re-enjoying all my vinyl records again. I'm sure from a technical or scientific point the more you pay the more you get but to be honest having listened to the music through my old amp and this new set-up I can't tell the difference, so in my book this unit works great.
