ART DJ Pre II Phono Preamplifier

ART DJ PRE II Overview

Designed to amplify and EQ your vinyl records, the DJ PRE II from ART allows you to play and record into a variety of sources including your digital audio workstation, sound card, home stereo, or main monitor system.

The DJ PRE II features a switched (100pF / 200pF) analog capacitance to optimize your phono cartridge response. A low cut filter removes turntable rumble, while leaving the audio pristine. The front gain control and signal/clip LED allow you to optimize the preamp's gain for a wide range of input sources.

The built-in low-noise circuitry is highly accurate and precisely conforms to the RIAA standard, while the low impedance line output can be used with any sound card. The DJ PRE II is housed in an all-aluminum black anodized chassis and ships with a power supply.

  • High accuracy/low noise preamp
