00:00The built-in phono preamp in modern amplifiers often exists just to be listed in the specs.
00:05This is the Onkyo Muzee 40. I expected about the same.
00:09I connected the Project RPM RPM One Carbon, which costs about 700 euros,
00:15and I really didn't want to buy a separate phono preamp.
00:18The dynamics are decent, the soundstage, the details, and good bass control.
00:23So you can buy a decent turn table, connect it directly to the Onkyo,
00:27and already have a pretty serious system. Do you prefer a built-in phono preamp,
00:31or do you think a separate one is a must, want to compare with your own ears?
00:35Come to the DemoRoom Premium Hi-Fi in Riga. The link is in the channel profile.
