Back in the vinyl world I needed a preamp to connect my turntable to a modern amp with only a CD input. At first I didn't want to pay a lot because I thought it would be kind of fun. (It's since grown into something more.) This thing does exactly what it's supposed to do; It amplifies the signal to line level so you can plug it into a non-phono stage input on your amp or receiver. If you just want to listen to records, that's fine. But in the meantime I have bought an old Sony TA-1010 integrated amplifier with its own phono stage. Remember that turntables used to be *hi-fi* music formats, so amplifier manufacturers have put a lot of effort into making their own built-in phono stages. They really were a selling point and how one manufacturer was trying to differentiate its overall sound quality from another. Well, the preamp in the TA-1010 blows Behringer. I mean it's not even close. The music just sounds a lot more "alive" - it has more stereo separation, more clarity, and that intangible "3D soundstage" that everyone talks about and that Behringer lacks. If I had to quantify something concrete and (hopefully) measurable, I would say that Behringer prefers the mid-range and produces relatively weak lows and highs. But it's more than that. Vocals, for example, sound a bit dull on the Behringer while they're front and center on my TA-1010. However, I'm sure you don't have to go back to 1971 to get that kind of preamp quality. . But you just won't get it out of the $25 box. It's probably about getting what you pay for. I don't think this is a bad preamp for the price, but there is a definite difference between a $25 preamp and a good preamp.
