Highly recommended for a cheap phono preamp. - I was looking for a cheap phono preamp to pair with a new turntable that I had received from my father. This fit the bill exactly. I have played nearly 10 hours already on it and it sounds phenomenal. There is no buzzing or anything. It is crisp and clear as I would expect from any receiver that had a phono input built in. Easy to set up and very simple. Instructions are very clear as well. Only con is that the ground screw was extremely tight when I received it and had to use a wrench to free it up, but after that, it worked very nicely. I would be careful to align the ground wire just right on the screw as it is just above the power input. Shouldn't be a problem if you're aware of it. Overall, definitely recommend if you are looking for something quick and easy to install and are not too concerned with anything fancy or expensive. Review: Cheap, Compact, Effective - Behringer has done it again. The PP400 Ultra-Compact Phono Preamp is exactly what it looks like: It's ultra-compact. It takes up a very negligible amount of space. It will sit comfortably between a turntable and another component. In its compactness, though, it does NOT sacrifice usability. It has no trouble amplifying a turntable's signal to line level. Before buying a preamp, amp could only boost my turntable to a 'easy listening' level. The noise was evident in the signal due to far too much amplification being necessary. With the help of this preamp, my amp no longer acts as a crutch and I can comfortably listen to music without my amp's 'I'm turned up to 11 and struggling' noise. The build quality is far superior than anything else at this price point. It's not cheap plastic like many companies would try to sell, the entire enclosure is fairly thick metal. This makes for a nice interference shield and overall pleasing look. It also features a ground terminal which will hook up to many turntables and amps to further reduce interference. Unfortunately, there is no option to buy it in black. Judging from the accessible screws on the side, though, it would be a small task to take apart the enclosure and paint it myself if I wanted. This preamp also does not have a power switch, but this is not much of an issue. It's one small complaint on an otherwise amazing product. Summary: If you need a preamp, buy this one. It has the same build quality and performance as much more expensive preamps. ## Features - Phono Preamplifier with Stereo RCA Inputs - Stereo RCA Outputs - Converts your phono signal to a line level signal - State-Of-The-Art phono preamp to accommodate all magnetic pickups ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000H2BC4E | | Best Sellers Rank | #190,644 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #109 in Audio Component Preamplifiers | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (6,118) | | Date First Available | May 19, 2007 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 12.3 ounces | | Item model number | PP400 | | Manufacturer | Music Tribe US | | Product Dimensions | 4.06 x 1.26 x 2.52 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Behringer - **Color:** Silver - **Compatible Devices:** Speaker - **Included Components:** MICROPHONO - **Item Weight:** 0.77 Pounds - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Model Name:** PP400 - **Motor Type:** DC Motor - **Signal Format:** Line-Level - **Style:** Boom microphone stand with a telescoping boom arm ## Images ![Behringer MICROPHONO PP400 Ultra-Compact Phono Preamp, Silver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81uHON1aRzL.jpg) ![Behringer MICROPHONO PP400 Ultra-Compact Phono Preamp, Silver - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XSG9MeJ9L.jpg) ![Behringer MICROPHONO PP400 Ultra-Compact Phono Preamp, Silver - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ibo2bdc+L.jpg) ![Behringer MICROPHONO PP400 Ultra-Compact Phono Preamp, Silver - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71L1vTrfasL.jpg) ![Behringer MICROPHONO PP400 Ultra-Compact Phono Preamp, Silver - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31hpUxind-L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does the unit work with moving coil or moving magnet cartridges? (mm vs mc)** A: From Behringer's PP400 website's page, "State-of-the-art phono preamp to accommodate all magnetic pickups" **Q: I have an Audio Technica AT-LP60 and Lepai LP-2020A+ Tripath TA2020 Class-T Hi-Fi Audio Amplifier with Power Supply, would I still need a preamp?** A: You can simple test your amplifier by connecting the audio output from the turntable to your power amp and see if you can control the sound volume. I suspect that you might not get any sound from the power amp even at max output power. Then you need the pre-amp to boost the signal from the turntable before connecting it to the power amp. Hope this helps. **Q: My amplifier has no "aux" input. Will the pre-amp boost the signal from a turntable to a cd input?** A: This pre-amp boosts any signal. How you connect it to the AMP doesn't matter. AUX or PHONO is only important if the pre-amp is inside the amp. **Q: my desirable configuration is: ATPL120 turntable output to preamp and from preamp to Sony TMR-RF970R headphones. Can I have enogh strong signal?** A: if it is an audio technica atpl120, then it already has a phono preamp, so if you hook it up to a stereo or headphones, you should be hearing it in full volume control. so I would think just hooking it up to your headphones will give you full volume.1980s or older turntables don't have a preamp so they relied on specially revamped phono audio hookups, but yours already is preamped so you don not need any addition preamp devices. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for the price point! Highly recommended for a cheap phono preamp. *by J***K on January 11, 2016* I was looking for a cheap phono preamp to pair with a new turntable that I had received from my father.

I wasn't expecting much for $25 but it delivers great performance. There is virtually no hum, even at high volumes although I do hear a little hiss when nothing is playing but it is very faint. The only downside of this phono stage is that it doesn't provide as much amplification as I would like. Even with my super efficient Grados hooked up to my tube amp, I have to crank the knob past 12 o'clock for normal listening volume. I only usually crank it to 8 or 9 o'clock. It also DOES NOT take MC cartridges so don't expect to use it if you have a moving coil. I doubt anyone with a MC cartridge would be looking at a $25 phono stage though. It seems very well built over all and I suspect it should last many years. The wall wart power supply leaves much to be desired but what do you expect for such a low price? Musically speaking, everything sound good although it isn't the most resolving of phono stages. You won't get the microdynamic details of a higher priced phono amp. But for this price, it really does nothing wrong. ## Frequently Bought Together - Behringer Microphono PP400 - Tan QY 2RCA to 2RCA Cable 3Ft, Gold-Plated 2 RCA Male to 2 RCA Male Stereo Audio Cable for Home Theater, HDTV, Gaming Consoles, Hi-Fi Systems (3Ft/1M) - Amazon Basics 2 RCA Audio Cable for Amplifier,Active Speakers or Subwoofer with Gold-Plated Plugs, 4 Feet, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/832098-behringer-microphono-pp400-ultra-compact-phono-preamp-silver](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/832098-behringer-microphono-pp400-ultra-compact-phono-preamp-silver) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
