Description :
This little guy puts out a big sound, notably dynamic, with excellent rhythmic punch and drive on rock and jazz. What distinguishes the 834P from solid-state phono stages is the sense of openness, scale and three-dimensionality. It’s a great soundstager, a strong defender of the analogue argument and the source of some of the sweetest bass. As for vocals, they are smooth and well placed in space.
Available in 2 versions - With or without a volume control, i.e inbuilt preamp
In opinion wise, some feel that the unit without the volume control is a just a little bit better overall, due to expected potentiometer coloration, but the prospect of doing away with normal pre-amp altogether might raise an eyebrow or two. The audio circuits are the same in both versions, so no difference is found outside of the dual section stereo volume pot and its short internal hook up wires.
