Transformed the sound from my turntable
I recently bought the ATLP120X turntable to use with my powered speakers (HS50M). I made use of the built in phono amp to get a line level signal. It was great but as I was going into powered speakers I had no single volume control (one on each speaker) and no control for treble or bass. This little unit has made all the difference, a single volume and the ability to colour the sound to taste. Really impressed with the sound I have now for very little investment. Whilst cheap I’d imagine that the built in one on the turntable only has components that cost pennies. It’s all subjective of course, but this has made my setup 8x better than previously 👍

Fantastic little phono preamp
What a quality item this is. I was coming from an Art DJ PRO where I was getting a lot of noise from power supply. This Douk is the bees knees and I'm truly astounded by the quality and lack of noise. It's moved my vinyl experience from 2 to 8 in one foul swoop.

Good value pre amp
I bought this little pre amp for my daughter so that she would be able to plug an old 80’s Sony direct drive turntable into a pair of KS Reunion active speakers.I had tried couple of other budget phono pre amps and both were too noisy to be considered usable.This one, however, works a treat.It sounds good and has virtually zero background noise or hiss.It looks quite cute as well.You will have to provide your own usb power supply though.But considering how awful and noisy the power supply’s that are usually included with these budget amps are, I would consider the ability to provide a higher quality PSU a bonus.I’ve tried and returned quite a few budget pre amps from Amazon and I feel that it’s always the PSU that lets them down.A cheap, generic, dc adapter will always spill a load of interference and buzz into the audio. And the smaller the amp, the more susceptible it can be to such interference.

It works but sounds super crunchy
Pretty cool design and decent build quality but the soind quality is awful, every sound produced is accompanied with an incredibly distracting, crunchy buzz. I was hoping to listen to my vinyl with clear quality through my headphones as to not disturb my roomates when they are asleep but this has just rnded up being a pretty costly waste of money. Do not buy this if you are expecting high definition audio quality.

Works for now but not enough
I'm not a tech audio person but got this small device before I go for a standard amp.It works although for my untrained ears it is not what I'd expected.It charges via USB A/C so you need a plug like that handy. Short cable limits the placement.

Low signal from deck to your amp then you probably need a preamp
For someone who is really into their vinyl then (unless your deck has a built in one) a preamp maybe needed.It takes the low level signal from your deck and amplifies it to a line level suitable for your amp.I dont know a great deal about them but knew i needed one.This unit is switchable between MC and MM (the type of cartridge on your deck, moving coil or moving magnet) and the connections are straight forward, phono in left and right RCA and line out left and right RCA to your amp with a USB C input for power (the lead supplied but as is the norm now you need to supply the wall charger.Overall this did exactly what i needed and the sound is very good too with adjustable bass and treble controls and volume on the front panel.i am very pleased with this and recommend it.+++AAA
