About the PRA-1500
The Denon PRA-1500 is a stereo preamplifier made in Japan, with phono stages for both moving-magnet (MM) and moving-coil (MC) cartridges, plus line-level inputs for sources such as CD, tuner, auxiliary components, and tape decks. It provides preamplifier outputs, tone and balance controls, variable loudness, source-direct and muting functions, and a 16 Hz subsonic phono filter. The model was manufactured from approximately 1989 to 1995.
