Pro-Ject Phono Box E BT 5

Turntable preamplifier for MM cartridges with line output and Bluetooth transmitter for wireless connection

New generation phono preamplifier and high performance Bluetooth transmitter capable of transmitting high resolution audio. This transmitter uses the latest technologies such as Bluetooth 5.0 and aptX-HD, bringing a new dimension and new possibilities in wireless streaming and elevating the sound to a true Hi-Fi level. Taking advantage of the increased range and bandwidth of Bluetooth 5.0, the sound is always accurate, detailed and dynamic, even when the quality of the Bluetooth connection fluctuates, thanks to the latest and advanced aptX-HD codec. This eliminates the typical lossy artifacts of other compression codecs.

The sound of the turntable can thus be transmitted wirelessly to e.g. Bluetooth speakers, Bluetooth headphones or an amplifier with Bluetooth receiver.

An integrated converter converts analogue signals (either from the turntable or the line input) into digital signals.l audio data and sends it wirelessly to any Bluetooth receiver within a 10 metre operating range. The very fast connection to other devices guarantees a seamless listening experience.
