Audio Analogue AAphono
Preamplifier signed Audio Analogue, fitted with front-panel controls to tailor the playback of your vinyl records.
Description
The AAphono is a phono preamplifier designed by Audio Analogue, intended to be placed between a turntable and an amplifier or a line input. Its role is to amplify and equalise the signal coming from the cartridge, an essential stage since this signal is too weak and non-standardised to be read directly by a conventional amplifier.
Its front panel is fitted with several control buttons, allowing the user to adjust the operation of the unit without having to access the rear panel or open the casing. This accessibility makes it easier to make adjustments according to the cartridge used or listening preferences.
The AAphono is aimed at vinyl enthusiasts who wish to have a separate phono stage rather than relying on a phono input built into an amplifier. It will particularly suit those seeking direct and practical adjustability to fine-tune the sound of their turntable.
What to check before buying used
Check the operation of each control on the front panel: the gain and impedance adjustment buttons may suffer from faulty contacts or erratic response after years of use. Listen to the phono inputs for hiss, hum or crackling, which would indicate worn capacitors or poorly isolated earthing. Also check the condition of the rear RCA connectors and the mains cable, as well as the tightness of the casing.
