GRAHAM SLEE GRAM AMP 2 COMMUNICATOR PHONO PREAMP

The Gram Amp 2 Communicator phono preamp is a stripped down professional performer specifically designed to give the record playing listener on a low budget full scale performance you won't get from anything else close to its price. Starting out life as the "plain" Gram Amp 2, it earned legendary status within weeks of its introduction back at the turn of the century in the year 2000. Ten years plus onward, it retains its original circuit configuration and thus offers full scale musical performance that sounds exceptionally superb. To be able to continue making this astonishing phono stage preamp at a price you can afford Graham Slee stripped out all the costly cosmetics and what remains is a small, neat and presentable aluminum box with "musical gold" on the inside! The Gram Amp 2 Communicator phono stage preamp is supplied with a universal voltage energy efficient plug-in wall power supply. It can also be powered by the PSU1 power supply which can be ordered separately.

Reviews
"What I didn't expect was for it to sound stage like a four-figure preamp"
- Geoff Husband, TNT Audio (February 2001)

"It concedes little indeed to more expensive designs and kept us entertained for hours. Timing is first-rate, instrumental timbre convincing and detail resolution frankly impressive..."
- Hi-Fi Choice (December 2001)

"Switch to the power rock of Led Zeppelin II and the Gram Amp 2 delivers both crashing cymbals and deep thundering bass with ease" - What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision (June 2002)

Belt

Hi guys, I’m sure this belt is just great. I actually need help getting the turntable to turn still. Is there a way that I can be on a phone call or even FaceTime to explain and show what’s going on with this Older turntable with any of your staff?

Good price for the stylus. Arrived quickly and easily. Will be ordering from them again!!

Stylus for Realistic System 1210 turntable
Phillip Pierini (Dumas, US)

Perfect fit, timely delivery, would order from them again

Great cartridge!

The solid low end was a surprise! I generally feel 2 gram tracking force is a bit high but am going with it as specified. I do a lot of LP to digital conversions and this cartridge tracks well on older worn LPs with little inner grove distortion. I did do a realignment as the cartridge/headshell as received was a bit off. The sound is unremarkable which is to say neutral which is a pleasant change from cartridges I’ve used in the past! Overall a great performer especially at this price point. Definitely recommended!

Exactly as described

Part was identical to the worn out original. Had the new one installed in 10 seconds.

Good sounding

A warm, balanced good sounding stylus for the money. Give it a little break in time for best sound.
