PP 2i

About the PP 2i

The NAD PP 2i Phono Preamplifier is a versatile audio component that supports both moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC) cartridges, making it suitable for a wide range of turntable setups. It features a built-in passive equalizer that follows the RIAA standard within ±0.3 dB, ensuring accurate sound reproduction. The device includes separate RCA inputs for MM and MC cartridges and a switch to select between them. It also has a rear panel stereo RCA output for connecting to a home stereo receiver. The PP 2i operates using an external power supply, which helps to improve sound quality by reducing noise and interference. However, similar models like the PP 2e use a 24V DC, 100mA adapter. The signal-to-noise ratio for MM cartridges is 80 dB, and for MC cartridges, it is 78 dB. The device does not include adjustable resistance or capacitance loading options, nor does it feature vacuum tubes. It is designed to be compact and easy to integrate into existing audio systems.
