noise series current source /shunt regulator arrangement 
for low impedance and noise. The digital stage is fed by the 
5V  USB  supply  of  the  PC  thus  offering  total  isolation  of  the 
analogue and digital stages for clean low noise performance.

SUMMARY

This  sophisticated  and  cost-effective  component  allows  you 
to enjoy your vinyl LP collection through your normal stereo 
system,  but  also  gives  the  option  to  record  your  LP’s  into 

today’s  digital  formats.  The  additional  Line  Input  allows  any 
other analogue source, be it FM radio, Tape, or the analogue 
output of your CD player, to be converted to the digital USB 
format. This also ‘adds back’ the input on your Amp or Receiver 
used up by the PP-3. This extra functionality makes the PP-3 
an easy upgrade from the PP-2, while maintaining the PP-2’s 
extraordinary performance and sound quality.
