Pathos New InTheGroove silver

Developed by Pathos engineers, In The Groove is a highly successful phono preamplifier, already well-known on the market and now completely redesigned. It features high-quality integrated circuits, flexibly adapting to any type of phono cartridge.

This is an analog product, equipped with a passive RIAA preamplification composed of two chassis, a multi-voltage linear power supply, and three settings: impedance and capacitance can be adjusted from the front panel, while sensitivity is set from the rear panel. These settings allow you to find the perfect match to achieve the best performance and get the most out of your audio system. A final sound adjustment can be made from an analog source, according to your own musical taste, by changing the impedance load value.
