Rolls VP29 Overview

The Rolls VP29 is a phono/turntable preamplifier with provisions for line level output. The VP29 is designed for use with amplifiers, mixers, or stereo systems that do not provide turntable inputs.

The preamp features dual RCA phone inputs, ground terminal connection, and dual RCA stereo line-level outputs. A separate 1/8" stereo line-level output is provided for added flexibility. Although the unit is DC powered (AC adapter included), its compact design makes it both unobtrusive and portable.

The Rolls VP29 features RIAA standard EQ compensation. Counter-EQing during playback compensates for over accentuated high frequencies and low-end frequency loss
RCA and 1/8" Phone Output
In addition to the standard RCA L/R phono outputs provided, a single 1/8" stereo phone output is provided for added flexibility
Compact & Rugged Design
The Rolls VP29 sports a rugged, compact design that is both unobtrusive as well as lightweight and portable

question

Just purchased and received. I'm using as instructed for a turntable preamp. What's the deal with the high volume at low levels, increased hum and distortion? FyiThe receiver is equipped with turntable / phono set up if that's the potential problem?
Asked by: Anonymous
If the receiver has an input labeled PHONO or TURNTABLE , then the Rolls VP29 Phono Preamp will be unnecessary and will definitely degrade the signal if connected.

The specs do not mention that this phono preamp will work with moving coil cartridges, but the Music Hall Mini Phono Amp, BH #MUMINI is for Hi-Output Moving Coil Cartridges, as well a moving magnetic cartridges.

question

Can I hook turntable to input of Rolls, then output of Rolls into input of my ASUS Gamer and record on Roxio, or will I need an amp?
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes. Once you have your turntable going into the preamp the signal coming out will be hot to use for recording without any other amplification.

What does it mean if the light won't turn on?
Asked by: Anonymous
if good power source confirmed and plug in tight on unit...then either light burned out or unit defective. confirm by playing LP...if you dont hear amplified sound...unit is defective..provided sound cables connected properly to amp/receiver.
