This electronic preamplifier stands up to the test and will provide you with serious sound performance. The PP999 is perfect for bringing your studio equipment's phono-level output to a more suitable and manageable line-level output. It'll take your audio signal, amplify its strength and prepare it for further processing by your receiver or amplifier. Preamps technically provide voltage gain to your desired equipment and are key to assisting the signal source. The ultra-low noise audio conditioning circuitry allows the preamp to boost audio to levels that are more manageable for various types of audio equipment. You'll find it easier to adjust the recording level volumes of different sources and instruments alike. You should position your preamp close to the source to reduce unwanted noise and interference. Preamps can sometimes come built into the stereo equipment, but if that's not the case, the PP999 is an easy install, wise choice and great addition to any musician or producer. Take your sounds and audio production skills to the next level with the PP999 Preamplifier.

I spent days researching on the web for a good quality preamp for my vintage turntable. I became a student of amplifier design and performance challenges and indicators. After all of that work, I realized that there are tiers to price/quality in this segment. If quality is your top priority, you should be spending $200-600. There is a mid tier of options between $66-$199. Then there is $65 and below. Depending on whose analysis you read, this preamp is either the best or tied for the best with another preamp that is at the top of that lower range. So for me, in the under $100 range I wanted to spend, I am delighted to have gotten one of the best under $100 products available for only $13. It’s one of those rare instances where spending the least amount of money puts you ahead of half the field of options priced many times more. I dig that.

Small, inexpensive and works perfectly!

UPDATE 2/9/23 - Bought a Fosi Box X4 thinking it would improve on the PP999 and offer more flexibility. Lots more flexibility BUT wow, was it a dud by comparison. Going to try ART or GoGroove next, in search for controls. So far, the $13 buck amp wins.

UPDATE 3/15/23: Still think the PP999 is a winner for budget but the ART DJ Pre II was a big upgrade. I liked it quite a bit more regarding sound and variability. For $50 it is worth the upgrade if it falls within your budget. Tried Pro-Ject Phono Box for $120... not good. Sent that back... ART was WAY better. Since though... I found a box damaged iFi Zen Phono Preamp and went ahead and picked it up. It was 3x the ART price. I will say though, the iFi Zen is incredible to my ear. I did not intend on spending that much but I read and saw so many favorable reviews I wanted to try it. I'm keeping it because honestly, it's a whole different sound experience. The ART was very good... happy with it. Experimenting with the iFi Zen brought me into a totally different and better listening experience. Simply cost... ART is great for that budget. iFi is better (to me) and a higher budget.

Nice way to add a record player to a stereo

My young daughter is getting into vinyl records.
I had to pull out my old '70s and '80s vinyls to show her what life used to be like before CDs and MP3 player.
it's useful and educational so we needed a way to be able to play my 90's Gemini turntable through my mini sound system.
I tied to hook it up to my old Kenwood receiver but one of the photo inputs was bad so only the right channel worked so this unit gave us the ability to play vinyl into a modern mini system using one of the pairs of aux inputs , with no problem...

Cost-effective and great sound to revive an old turntable

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 8, 2023

I have an old Realistic turntable I bought 30+ years ago and wanted to see if it still worked and how it sounded. My A/V receiver does not have a phono input, so I searched around and found the Phyle PP999 as a cost-effective and highly rated phono preamp. It was very simple to hook up and I was playing a record within minutes of unboxing. Very clear sound and no hum. I am very pleased with the purchase. In the picture, the preamp is sitting between the receiver (with turntable on top of it) and the left speaker.

The preamp comes with a power supply only. You will need to purchase audio cables to go from the preamp to your receiver if you do not already have some. Be sure to connect the ground wire from your phonograph to the ground screw on the preamp.

Ground screw and threaded connector are aluminum and too soft, so care is needed affixing ground wire.

This Pyle PP999 phone preamp did a more than credible job matched with my new Technics SL-100C while waiting for my Darlington Labs MP-7 to be built.

Got me up and running as a stop gap, and enjoying vinyl again. Thumbs up!

Great Value for the Price (And the Right Customer)

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on October 11, 2019

Warning: I am not an audiophile. I simply enjoy listening to music via vinyl. I don't buy $300 rare vinyls, I finger-through the used vinyls at my local record shop and buy 5 for $20. If you're also like that, then my review is aimed at you.

I paired this with a Lepy amplifier, and it works a treat. On the decent-but-budget speakers I use, and at the volumes I play music at, this is perfect. I don't crank my music to the max, primarily because my neighbors would be cross about that. Sitting in the same small room as my record player, this preamp gets the job done and provides clean audio to my amplifier.

The shell is a sturdy metal that doesn't flex when you apply pressure to it. Screen printing on the case is crisp, clear, and seems like it will stand up over time. It has 4 soft feet on the bottom which is a nice touch. The included power adapter has a beefy cord and is reassuringly heavy. Nice to see they included a quality power adapter. The construction definitely exceeded my expectations for the price.

Some reviews mention this device produces a high amount of noise through the speakers, but I have yet to detect any. Perhaps if you have very expensive and sensitive speakers, better ears than mine, or you listen at high volumes then you'll notice noise. Personally, I can't detect any.

Overall, if you want an affordable, reliable way to preamp your record player then this works a treat. Go into it with the right expectations.

If you have an audio system worth thousands of dollars, or magically-sensitive audiophile ears, don't buy a budget preamp like this and expect the world.

If you're like me and have a thrift-store record player, budget speakers, and you don't need to blow the doors off with volume, this is a fantastic value for the price.

sounds good, no Humm, bit quiet but easy to turn up

this thing is actually well built for the price

in the past I have stayed away from Pyle, used to have a Pyle deck it was a pos and have seen some of there older PA equipment and it's hot garbage.

however I opened the box the power supple which is only 12v 0.15a is very heavy for that tiny bit of output, the preamp has good weight to it the connections are decent and I didn't experience any Humm or ground issues at all, used a good set of RCA cables (not the heavy gold end they would prob bust this cheap thing, but good sony ones from the 90s) connected the ground solid and it sounds perfectly fine, probably better then the basic ones they put in home receivers these days.

amp connected to it is a marantz and no phono input , this works great and for the price it's a steal.

I purchased this to boost the sound of my Crosley turntable. I connected as recommended (no ground wire supplied, but I tried several different sizes) and all it did was distort the sound. Pyle technical support was NO help and I couldn't return it to Amazon as I didn't have the box. I purchased a second hand Yamaha receiver for $60 and all is good! Don't waste your money on this preamp.

Great preamp for good price

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on February 25, 2023

Style: SingleVerified Purchase

I recently purchased the Pyle Phono Turntable Preamp and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. The preamp is well-designed, with clear and easy-to-use controls that make it easy to adjust the sound to your liking. The audio quality is excellent, with crisp highs and deep, rich lows that really bring out the best in my vinyl records.

One thing I appreciate about this preamp is its versatility. It works with both moving magnet and moving coil turntable cartridges, which means you can use it with a wide range of turntables. The compact size also makes it easy to store and transport.

Overall, I would highly recommend the Pyle Phono Turntable Preamp to anyone who wants to get the most out of their vinyl records. It is a high-quality and affordable option that will help you enjoy your music to the fullest.

Failed after six months of casual use!

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on August 24, 2020

Style: SingleVerified Purchase

UPDATE: Several months after I bought this the output jacks on it started to act up. There’s a poor connection and now anytime I am using the preamp, there’s an awful staccato sort of patting noise coming out of my subwoofer during quiet parts or when the record isn’t spinning. This doesn’t happen at any other time, and changing the cables had no effect so the problem is within the preamp itself. I mean, it was only $20, but I still had expected it to last more than six months. Disappointed in this and am now on the hunt for a new preamp.

Previous review (before issue became apparent):

Basically a DI Box for your turntable, gets the output level where it should be. I'm not enough of an audiophile to recognize if it colours the sound of the records in any way, but I suspect more expensive ones may sound better.
