Project Phono Box DS3 B

The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Project Phono Box DS3 B is built on a steel frame which is then covered by either silver or black aluminium panels. Providing utmost stiffness and excellent electrical separation. The crisp and minimalist look can be uplifted with retro styled wooden side panels that are magnetically attached and available as an additional purchase.

Project Phono Box DS3 B

The Phono Box DS3 B is engineered as a dual mono and completely discrete moving magnet and moving coil phono preamplifier with the ability to have balanced inputs and outputs. In addition to many features that can be modified. It provides amazing value for the price and significantly enhances any mid/high-end analogue hi-fi system.

Discrete Circuitry Implementation

Pro-Ject design team decided to go with discrete circuitry implementation in the Phono Box DS3 B. Discrete circuits refer to those that do not use operational amplifiers (op-amps) at all. What you get is a sound that is more neutral, natural, dynamic, and vivid. They are challenging to assemble and require a greater diversity of components. However, when placed on a well organized electrical layout.

High Performance

Continuing with the high performance art, the Phono Box DS3 B gladly features a variety of easily accessible features. For example, this phono stage allows the user to connect two separate turntables simultaneously while each input remembers its previous settings in the memory, so the Impedance, Capacity (for MM cartridges) and Gain will be automatically adjusted as you switch between turntables.

In the case of MC cartridges, the load impedance dial which is continuously adjustable on the front panel enables you to set the impedance exactly as per your cartridge and your hearing preference.

True Balanced Connections

Since the Project Phono Box DS3 B includes the facility for both balanced inputs and outputs. It also shares in the Pro-Ject’s True Balanced Connections philosophy. That means if you connect a moving coil cartridge turntable to this phono preamplifier and use one of Pro-Ject’s balanced connection cables, your analogue system performance will be benefited from enhanced dynamics, lesser noise, and better signal to noise ratio.

In fact, going true balanced would be like discovering the music you thought you had heard before but were missing certain ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌parts.

High End Features

The phono preamplifier is competent with all turntables and cartridges. No matter if they are of Moving Magnet (MM) or Moving Coil (MC) types. Take it easy to plug it in between your turntable and amplifier in order to get the high audio quality of your vinyl records..

Steel & aluminium housing. Completely discrete audio circuitry. Fully symmetrical gain stage. Split passive RIAA EQ. Dual mono. Balanced in & outputs. Stepless impedance ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌matching.

Features and Benefits

• Enhanced Sound Quality: A device that increases the signal strength. Is a powerful tool for obtaining better sound quality from the records.
• Flexible MM/MC: Compatible with both cartridges, including the MM and the MC type.
• Customizable Options: It is a turntable accessory with the extra benefit of adjusting the load and gain.
• Durability: Nothing can stand against a product made with a high quality material that can’t be scratched. It means that it will last a long time.
• Reduced Low Frequency Rumble: Defends ears against low frequency rumble. Also gives the option to play some records in mono mode.

Summary of the Project Phono Box DS3 B

The Project Phono Box DS3 B is specially made to be an upgradable sound controller. That would guarantee the best quality of sound you get from your vinyl records. It pinpoints and improves the audio signal. Making music become more captivating and immersive.

Enhances the Vinyl Experience

The Phono Box DS3 B is finished in a steel chassis, covered by silver or black aluminium panels, for extreme rigidity and good electrical isolation. The neat minimalist aesthetic can be further enhanced by the addition of retro inspired, magnetically wooden side panels (available as an option). It also features an external power adapter, to keep the sensitive internal signals free from any interferences
