Pro-Ject Announces Power Box RS2 Phono

MISTELBACH, AUSTRIA (September 27, 2022) – Fine Sounds Americas and Pro-Ject USA are proud to announce the Power Box RS2 Phono from Pro-Ject Audio Systems. The new product offers audiophiles a clear power supply upgrade for turntables and phono preamps to result in sonic harmony and perfect power distribution.

The Power Box RS2 Phono’s built-in transformer has a much higher power reserve compared to the standard power adapter and is able operate with flexibility given its low output impedance and large filtration capability. A linear power supply consists of a massive toroidal transformer which avoids penetration of any interference that may affect the audio component. With a linear power supply, background noise is all but eliminated and sound-staging is improved, enhancing detail resolution and overall audio performance.

About Pro-Ject USA

Pro-Ject Audio Systems was founded by one of Austria’s leading high-end audio distributors, Heinz Lichtenegger, in early 1991. A genuine music lover and a dyed-in-the-wool audiophile, Heinz challenged the common “cost-no- object” approach to analog audio equipment by manufacturing turntables, tonearms, and accessories at a reasonable price without compromising build quality or sonic performance. With his passion for high-end audio fueling a desire to take a familiar industry in a new direction, Heinz proceeded to use Pro-Ject Audio Systems as a locomotive to bring high-end gear to the masses. By adhering to that philosophy while still only using quality electronic components that deliver sound that far exceeds their stature, the engineers at Pro-Ject redefined what is possible in high-end audio and proven that great things do come in small packages.
