The PP500 is a dedicated record player preamplifier that provides essential preamplification for vinyl playback and includes a convenient volume control. Designed to work with turntables, it converts the cartridge signal to a suitable level for modern audio gear while offering adjustable output directly from the unit. The device is built to be compatible with UK power outlets, using a UK plug.

Integrated volume control allows precise listening level adjustment without needing to alter settings on the connected audio system. Simple integration with existing setups: connect your turntable to the PP500 input and connect the PP500 output to a linelevel input on an amplifier, receiver, or powered speakers.
