Behringer MICROPHONO PP400 Phono Preamp, Multi, 1 Paquet / S, RCA

The device works extremely well and it brought to life my turntable that I thought I will never use again because of these modern receivers

stopped working after some months

Perfetti, nessun ronzio, suono pulito, poca spesa e molta resa

The build quality is v good. I am feeding the output to edifier powered speakers. Amplification is also v good. In fact, I had ceramic cartridge, so the amplification was too much, causing clipping noise. I fixed it by making an external attenuator using 47k potentiometers. Then I got excellent results, amazing clarity. Would have been good if the manufacturer gave that simple addition. Then you can easily adjust amplification for magnetic or ceramic cartridges, making it more versatile. Grounding that brass nut is very important to keep the hum to minimum. It is tightened toi much, so I needed a pair of pliers to loosen it. Nice product overall.

After reading both the positive and negative reviews for this product, I was a somewhat cautious and proceeded to order with some trepidation. I had looked at much higher end phono pre-amps which all had pros and cons, especially with hum being a massive negative across the board. So I eventually bit the bullet and plumped for the PP400 as the price was low enough for me to swallow in case it didn’t live up to my expectations. As soon as the product arrived I hooked it up to my Technics SL1200MK2 and bridged it to my Denon M38 DAB, ensuring the 1200’s ground wire was connected. Upon connecting any hum immediately disappeared, I even turned the system up to full volume, tapping the plinth of the deck for some feedback or resonance, only to hear nothing! Suffice to say that my initial concerns were uncalled for and the sound quality was amazing. The line conversion is only a couple of decibels quieter than the CD output on my device, which I’m fine with. Bass and treble is extremely adequate and more than competes with both CD and USB sound sources. Some have said that this device lacks certain dynamics when compared to products 3-4 times more expensive, but my ears say that the PP400 sounds just fine! Of course my opinion is subjective, but I’m sure most will find this a perfectly good product. Only the purist audiophiles will find fault with this because they are listening to their hardware and not the music. Over all I am more than pleased with the PP400 and feel no desire to upgrade it to a more expensive pre amp as I know this does the job extremely well.
