The Audio Research LP1 Phono Preamplifier

Audio Research is known all over the world for its phono preamps, but wanted to create a more accessible product in the Audio Research LP1 phono preamp. It is immediately recognisable as an Audio Research design, and to the ear it could easily be one of the company’s much higher end models. The dynamic range and texture are remarkable for an entry-level product. It provides incredible transparency and detail, even for more complex pieces of music. We think its award is definitely well deserved.
