Review: Flyttade Phono kabeln från spelaren från att gå till min Yamaha AS-701 förstärkare till iFi ZEN Air Phono. Har inte jämfört ljudkvaliteten mellan kopplingarna men ljudvolymen via iFi blev dubbelt så högre, men ljudkvaliteten blev absolut inte sämre snarare tvärtom. Verkar göra det den ska. Är nöjd.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***M on 20 April 2025*

I was using the built-in preamp in my turntable and I thought it sounded fine. I didn’t realize how much I was missing. I unboxed it and put Rush-2112 on and it sounded like the musicians were in front of me. The clarity and detail is amazing. I also picked up the Ifi linear power supply to go along with it to reduce noise. Some complaints are that it comes with a short USB cable, which is another reason why I got the linear power supply, and recommend it to buyers. Also, there are no gain or load adjustment options so you’re stuck with what it offers. It still sounds great to me and is perfect for beginners, but for someone who wants to adjust settings, I would look elsewhere. This is by far the best preamp in the budget category.
