There are many DIY heroes, but Rod Elliott really deserves an award for his commitment to no nonsense circuits, free knowledge, great design and advice. His website is a one stop shop for figuring out audio electrical engineering.

Built it with an OPA4134 chip, and sounds kick-ass!!! It was a first goer, no need for tweaking or adjusting, sounds outstanding as it is. Thank You!!! :D ...and thanks for Rod Elliott!!! Keep up the good work.

I built this amp many years ago using ne5534 and decent caps, it's the best sounding phono preamp I've ever heard. Using it right now to pass through and digitise some some of my favourite records.

I agree with your opinion on Rod's site. I built this preamp myself and it sounds excellent. The single supply rail version lends itself very well to installation within a turntable.

A very nice circuit. I built with good parts and powered by +15/-15 AA batteries. Sounds fantastic.

I built this as well with opa2134, driven by a sony Ps22 turntable. The material cost was about 25 Euro for me. It is very forgiving to build, worked without any problem. Sound qualities can not be determined, this is the first preamp (and first turntable) I used. From price point of view it is a no brainer.

I built this using Rod's boards - a P06 and the P05A regulated power supply. I used OPA2134 opamps and Dale RN55D resistors. It may be the best phono preamp I've owned. It was definitely engaging to listen with. I lost it in a move and I miss it.

Elnufo Vinyl is my main listening format (next to uncompressed digital). Snickers likes to take over the bench if he can find a clear spot. Sometimes he makes a clear spot by pushing stuff onto the floor!

just made it aswell, sounds better than the preamp in my amplifier, i just put it in a metal box and printed some buzzwords and logos on it so the audiosnobs think its a expensive high end device btw you can also order pcbs from rod, then you get access to the backend with all the goodies you wont see on the project pages

The RIAA curve is not complex. As John said the standard moving magnet or moving coil is a 'velocity' device and its output is proportional the the speed of the 'wiggle' of the stylus. The record maker needs to save valuable space on the record and large movements in the bass need minimising, the HF is susceptible to noise and needs the opposite treatment to the bass for lowering noise.. and that is about it. The RIAA curve was arrived at with some painfull to and fro-ing where every record maker was using a different curve NARTB RIAA etc.. Standardised since 1954 when Long Play microgroove was fully introduced. (I think). If you want to cause brain meltdown, think of the cutter also being a velocity device, the ceramic cartridge having a flat response and speaker drive units which are motors and therefore velocity devices too..... (It all works out in the end)

Some oscillation happening there at the end? I love Rod's site although I admit to not understanding all of it. He does have some nice articles targeted to beginners. I built/copied that same phono preamp circuit on a stripboard using LM833 op amps (also known to easily oscillate). I enclosed my project in a nice metal box an it sounds excellent. Maybe you can show that squeal on your oscilloscope?
@JohnAudioTech9 жыл бұрын
Wade Prince It was only oscillating when I removed one of the batteries just to see what would happen. Doing so can cause an unpredictable effect with any amp. During normal operation, the amp is stable.

I tried using this preamp with batteries, and it was not as good as when I used a regulated supply with almost 10,000uF of capacitance. If you build this, don't build it with just batteries for the power supply - you won't get the full effect this excellent circuit can deliver.
