Anyone who wants to use their record player together with devices that have digital inputs only, such as home cinema receivers, sound-bars or all-in-one systems will love the Pro-Ject Optical Box E Phono.


The Optical Box E Phono takes many needs into account and offers a digital-optical signal output plus a standard analogue output that will work simultaneously. Therefore it can be used as the perfect signal splitter 1>2 to play the same signal on 2 systems at the same time. Another very useful purpose of Optical Box E Phono is that it can act as an input expander, for a system with shortage in inputs. Last but not least Optical Box E Phono is able to digitise not only phono sources, but also line signals from tape decks, tuners etc. To ensure that the incoming signal is maintained as unadultera-ted as possible, the A/D conversion in highest precision with 24bit / 96kHz resolution.

Of course it can also be used as an ordinary MM phono preamp with line output (3.5mm jack) that integrates in any HiFi system. The internal part of the housing is lined with metal, thereby eliminating RF interference and vibrations, so that an undisturbed listening experience is guaranteed. The Optical Box E Phono is the perfect partner for all modern Audiophiles who want to use their analogue signal sources with digital or analogue playback devices!

Testimonials

Bought some Rega Kyte speakers, stands and chords from DB online and they were incredibly helpful. They updated my delivery address very quickly and recommended a longer cut of cables which they did complimentary. They also noticed I didn’t order with banana plugs so called me back to double check, which I did mean to order. When i had some issues connecting my cables and speakers, I called for some advice which they happily gave. Excellent service and next day delivery to London. Thoroughly recommend.

Probably one of the best companies in the world. They had to special order in the speakers which took a fair bit of time, which is totally understandable, but they kept in touch with me throughout the entire time with updates (even on a Sunday!!!) and once the speakers were with them, they were dispatched and arrived next day.

The entire sound system that I purchased is insanely good, but still not as good as Doug Brady HiFi!

I have recently purchased a HiFi package with Doug Brady and I could not be more thrilled with my experience with them.
When I walked into the store, I was made to feel welcome and was introduced to some of the products. I produces a list of specific items I was interested in and John was really helpful in showing me these items. He set the system up so I could experience it, he made some suggestions which made the package even better. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him, he was very knowledgeable about the products and gave great advice. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything, or didn't feel that he was upselling at any point. I left with an amazing package and I'd like to thank John and the team for the fantastic experience.

It’s now two weeks since I bought home my new system and I wanted to say thanks again for all your help, advice and guidance, not to mention cups of tea. I now have a system that meets all my requirements and sounds fantastic. Special thanks to Jon, who I hope is on the road to recovery from his operation and to Roger, who helped me finalise my choice. The Rega Saturn, Hegel H190V and Dali Rubicon 2 is undoubtedly the best system I have ever owned.
