"Tube Box E features a fully discrete circuit design without using any operational amplifiers (OpAmps). This results not only in fantastic low noise phono amplification with clean measurements and accurate RIAA equalization, but also ensures a long product life-cycle as maintenance, service and repair are ensured for years and years to come. It also comes with replaceable tubes for tube rolling and sound-shaping. This gives the customer many options to pick from and alter the sound signature to his preference. Tube Box E will give a full and relaxed laid back sound with lush mids, just like you would expect it from a much bigger high-end tube phono preamplifier." - Pro-Ject
