The sound is great very clear, I don't have the best of hearing and the Pluto 2 has improved my enjoyment 100%. I have tube type preamps and they work well for jazz, folk, soft rock & roll. Hard rock, metal, and classic rock the Pluto beats them and matches the tubs in all other types of music. Buy one, you can't go wrong. Because of the sound, I am going to look into a Pluto record player. Setup was way too easy. I was up and running in just a few minutes. Always use good cables and that will help with the sound. ## Features - Low-noise phono preamp for all MM (moving magnet) cartridges. - Designed and assembled in Woburn, MA.

Always use good cables and that will help with the sound. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by J***F on 7 August 2024* I have this very old Pioneer Turntable and I really wanted to start playing vinyls again, so after looking around and looking at the reviews I settled on the Pluto. I could not believe the sound that came out of my speakers, very crisp and clear with no static or popping that I use to experience playing albums. Oh another reason to purchase the Pluto it is made in the good OLD USA!!!! I try to buy made in America when possible. It is even signed off by one of the techs, how cool is that.!!
