phono preamplifier

The main role of a phono preamplifier is to amplify and correct the signal sent by the vinyl turntable, in accordance with the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) standard.

The output of the cartridge produces a signal which is pre-amplified and then sent to the line input of an integrated Hi-Fi amplifier or Hi-Fi preamp.

If you're looking for an RIAA phono preamplifier, certain options allow you to play with the input and audio signal impedances, or even take advantage of automatic adjustment.
