That’s not true. Many phono preamps do not put out enough voltage to drive a power amp directly!Read the whole post before saying "that’s not true"
That’s why I said it has to have 68db of gain or higher!!!!!! And many do these days!
Looking for a phono preamp that has volume control
Looking for a phono preamp that has volume control. I've gone digital and sold my preamp. I don't want to convert the analog to digital and play it thru my DAC. And I miss my records. So I'm looking suggestions, preferably tube phono preamp with volume control.

All preamps with phono inputs have volume control so the question of getting one with volume is a silly title to this thread. Think the maybe OP meant to say " Looking for a phono stage that has volume control" But to use a good phono stage with separate passive preamp is another direction to go, with one proviso the phono stage needs to have 68db or more of gain. This would do nicely if your rich, as it has up to 73db of gain. https://www.stereophile.com/content/analog-corner-297-van-den-hul-grail-se-phono-preamplifier-saec-w... Cheers George |
