Made to Perform
The circuitry within the Stereo Box E is purpose-designed for correct and proper hi-fi stereo enjoyment. Boasting fully analogue pre- and power-amplifier stages, there are no corners cut internally and the result is a pure signal transmission that keeps the original musical information intact.
Featuring seven different input options, the Stereo Box E is made to support practically any source device. For turntables, there is a built-in moving magnet (MM) phono stage, whereas for other traditional analogue sources, such as tape decks, there are RCA or 3.5mm jack inputs on offer. Elsewhere, the optical and coaxial S/PDIF inputs allow you to connect digital sources, such as streamers or CD transports and benefit from the built-in high-resolution DAC. For wireless streaming, the Stereo Box E also boasts an aptX HD-compatible Bluetooth 5.0 input option.
The Stereo Box E’s 21W per-channel output benefits from a low-noise amplifier design, inspired by higher-end products within the Pro-Ject electronics range. To further enhance your sound experience, there is also a dedicated subwoofer output. For private listening, the built-in headphone amplifier brings added convenience for desktop environments or for late-night listening when it is not appropriate to be running speakers. The addition of a 5V/1A USB C power output is a convenient solution if looking to integrate low-power, modern streamers into the system without having to run multiple power cables.
