Target Application & Setup Guide:
If your modern amplifier or soundbar lacks a specialized "Phono" input, plugging your turntable directly into it will result in incredibly quiet, tinny sound. The Philmore PRE600 resolves this issue instantly. Simply route your turntable's RCA cables and ground wire into the PRE600 input, and run a secondary RCA cable from its output to your receiver's AUX, CD, or Tape input.
Tech Note: Designed explicitly for Moving Magnet (MM) and high-output phono cartridges. Not required for ceramic or crystal cartridges which already naturally produce a high line-level voltage output.
