The Pro-Ject Phono Box DS2 USB is a sophisticated phono stage designed for both Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) cartridges. It features extensive variable impedance and capacitance settings, allowing it to match any cartridge for optimal performance. The device includes two individual phono inputs, enabling users to connect two different turntables or tonearm/cartridge combinations. It uses a low-noise, jitter-free A/D converter to convert analog signals into high-resolution digital formats, including PCM up to 192kHz and DSD 128 via USB. The Phono Box DS2 USB also includes an analog line input for digitizing other analog audio sources and a standard line output for connecting to a Hi-Fi system. The unit is housed in an aluminum and metal chassis to minimize mechanical and electromagnetic interference.
Outputs: 1xLine Out (RCA), 1xUSB B, 1xOptical; Digital Output Sampling Frequencies: 48 / 96 / 192kHz, DSD128 (USB only); Noise Floor: 80dbA; Cartridge Compatibility: MM or MC; Input Impedance: 10-47 kOhm; Capacitance: 100/220 and 320pF
