U-Turn Audio – Pluto 2 Phono Preamp (Natural Aluminum)

Me dejo muy sorprendido porque hizo que mi Sumiko Rainier suene muy bien con Jazz. Es el pairing perfecto con cartuchos calidos. Abre mucho el soundstage y agrega coloracion a las frequencias altas

Considerably louder, and more detailed in quiet passages, than the Sony receiver preamp. Brighter highs, punchier bass, it really is a night and day difference. Surface noise seems less prominent as well. Really nice construction, solid all around. Very happy to support a US business building great products here.

I want to say first and foremost please make sure your cartridge input capacitance is within its range when getting a pre-amp to get the best sound of of it. I have and Audio Technic VA530en which is known for being very bright so I had to make sure the input capacitance was in between 100pF and 200pF this unit is at 100pF so I needed a cable no more than 100pF I contacted U-Turn they advised me to get the KableDirekt 3 foot cables that game in at 65fF, that are here on Amazon and it worked perfectly!! I got a very nice punchy un colored sound from this unit.In saying that, when I was doing my research on Youtube so many gave the Pluto 2 an inaccurate sound profile and acted like it was the pre amp but it wasn't. I am not saying what pre amp sounds better but what they were given was not the true sound capabilities of the U-Turn Pluto 2. There is no way they could be using one cartridge and comparing the Pluto 2 to other pre-amps when the input capacitance requirements are different between the cartridges and preamps and there is no input capacitance adjustment so you were not getting an accurate sound profile.I am glad I didn't believe that crap did my home work and I LOVE my Pluto 2.

Timely dilivery. Works very well. Does need to be hooked up through the Aux port.

I drop shipped my unit to the audio science lord of audio science review, the unit measured above average and I personally think it sounds very good. For my money it is better than the phono in the emotiva ta-100. Good companion to my uturn turntable.
