Works fine!

 

Used this to link my old Technic turntable to my not-quite-so-old Bose Acoustic Wave Music System, and for the first time in years I can listen to my collection of very old vinyl.

Great sound for the money.

 

Have an old JVC compact stereo system and hooked up an older Fisher turntable. My ancient records sound great now that I installed the pre-amp.

Great value for the price

 

Great plug-n-play device. Provides more than adequate boost to the phonograph signal so that my amplifier can play my old LPs. The only thing that it needs is an ON/OFF switch, which another reviewer also noted. I have to unplug the unit whenever I'm...

Appears to actually work!

 

Connectivity is simple. Sound reproduction seems fine but I need to update some components on my old Phillips 212E before I can judge fully. A pretty nice find for [$].

Terrible, terrible product

 

This product is terrible. It worked for about 91 days and then the left output quit working. What do you know- it's now out of warranty. Would never buy again, and I only hope it can be fixed.

Not worth the money

 

Terminals were broken off PC board, output is to high for my amp. Way to expensive for quality.
