The Bellari Rolls Phono Preamp. VP129 TUBE PHONO PREAMP/HEADPHONE AMP It's a tube phono preamp with a built in headphone amplifier, for use with moving magnet and high output cartridges only. The real kicker aside from the price and super sound is that it's manufactured in the US. "The Bellari seemed to create a sound that was rich natural and appealing. Surface noise was low, and the music emerged from a crisp quiet background. It was an excellent sound by almost any standards; one I was very happy to listen to. The bane of cheap vinyl reproduction is excessive brightness/harshness. The Bellari sounded focussed and articulate, but rich and warm too - with an attractively full bass and sweet open mid-band."
