German coupling capacitors and Japanese Nichicon and Rubycon filter capacitors handle the fine work in the signal path – a level of component effort you don't find everywhere in an external phono stage at this price point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA typically warm tube phono sound with a tangible sense of space. A switch lets you adapt the preamp to high- or low-output cartridges, instead of settling for a single fixed gain factor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the LM-33LP for? (and who it isn't)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor turntable fans looking for an external phono stage instead of the built-in solution in their amplifier.
