Viva analog controls! Twisting digital knobs is so, um, unrewarding. I'm playing a turntable and tape deck with an A/B and mute switch. Adjust the gain to a little red flicker to get the most out of it.Satisfying piece of gear that I enjoy

Used this as an interface because it has a line level input option. Sound card went out on my tower so I bought this for ripping vinyl with my Vinyl Studio Pro software which works phenomenally. I just needed this to take an analog signal and send a digital signal to my computer. Recorded one album, boxed the unit back up, and will probably end up in the garbage tomorrow

It worked for me to amplify the sound of the vinyl records.

Once set up (using Windows 11), this device is EXACTLY what we needed. It replaced an older WAY cheaper "phone preamp" box ONLY, which blew up and actually damaged our (former) PC's motherboard audio chip (we think). ONE CAUTION: Follow the printed instructions for setting up SEVERAL Windows settings EXACTLY. Once we did that, the audio results are FAR better than (a) we had before and (b) than some of the cranky "perfectionist" reviews shown here. Lots of people fancy themselves Audio Perfectionists, but to me (an actual musician and lifetime audio geek), they are merely picky (ego).

Well, I've divided back into vinyl records, again. I purchased an Audio Technica turntable with a built inpre-amp and the sound was just not there; at least for me. I began to wonder if the sound of vinyl was just a fond memory. So I began to look at outboard pre-amps and I found this model so I took a chance.I'm just going to say that for "me" the improvement is present, it's subtle but present. I can pick up delicate nuances that seemed to have been missing. Maybe the cartridge has had enough playing time to break in, I don,t know, but the sound is more immersive and present. It opened up musical details that seemed to be hidden before. I would say this reasonable upgrade was worth the time and effort.Oh, I did compare the built in turntable pre-amp with the PROAUDIO pre-amp and there is a difference, an improvement I'd say. Even with my older ears (years) I can discern the difference.In a word it is a "sweet" improvement.If you purchase this device I hope it will give you the same results that I have received.

1) The heft of this unit feels substantial, not cheap. I like that it is built with a metal case, and not plastic. I like the construction of it, tells me build quality was considered during design.2) EDIT of this section #2 - REVISED 12/10/2021- Previously I had said that the unit produces too much bass when using the phono switch, rather than line in. I obviously did not understand how RIAA equalization works. Let's just leave it at that before I embarrass myself too much. All said, the amount of bass I experience is just fine, now that I've corrected the error between my ears.All that said, though, I do get considerable speaker hiss when using this unit, as opposed to going straight from my turntable to the Photo In connection of my Yamaha HT amp. The Yamaha produces Zero hiss on direct connection, but put this in the chain, and you hear it, for sure.There is also a discernable, click-click-click at certain intervals, even if nothing is playing. I'm not really sure what is going on there. You can't really hear it with music playing, but when nothing is playing, and the unit is idle, you hear it.3) The other knobs - Gain and Monitor seem to both increase speaker loudness. It gets to a point that you can actually hear distortion if you have the Gain and Monitor volume set for Line In, and then switch to the Phono feature. This seems like an oversight. I understand that there may be some people who need to use this as a volume control for their system, but for most people volume is controlled by the main unit, not the pre-amp. I imagined the Monitor volume was specifically for the headphone output, but I was wrong.The solution would be to have a switch that allows the Monitor volume to activate or not. I know you can put the Monitor volume to zero and it's solved, but it's not really a great experience.

I ordered this DYNASTY PROAUDIO UA2D USB Phono Preamp in order to record a collection of Vinyl LPs. I was lacking a Line Input on a new PC so was looking for a USB attached solution. This Proaudio unit is in a sturdy metal case and appears to be well made. The nice thing with this unit is that it accepts Line as well as Phono Preamp input, switching between each by a button press. The USB connection was immediately recognized and automatically set up on my Windows 10 Pro PC. The included instructions describe how to configure the sound settings and it works perfectly. I compared capturing LP recording by both the Line Input (via my Stereo Receiver) and the Phono Preamp Input (directly from my Turntable) and cannot tell any difference between the results. Thus, I will now be selling my Technics SA-424 Stereo Receiver and instead use the Proaudio UA2D to record my LP collection. I have only had this unit a couple of days but am completely satisfied.

"Fantastic phono preamp with great performance for the price”I purchased and received the UA2D USB phono preamp last week and used it today, this is an incredible product for the price, I am very happy with this unit and works as intended. I hooked this up to my JBL powered studio monitor to play my Technics SL-1200MK5 and it works excellent as a phono preamp. Thru the USB port, and run with the Audacity software for transfer my 78's, LP’s and cassettes to mp3 or other digital format, sound quality is good and I can now put some of my out of print albums on to my phone and listening in my car.It is very well made, construction is solid and really love the clean white color casing, there aren't too many items nowadays that are made out of metal in white color.I might consider to purchase other one to use as the DA Converter / headphone amplifier with my laptop, and for those who already have a turntable, this device is highly recommended.
