Amp Works good BUT
The amp works good and I guess I would recommend it EXCEPT the left RCA input jack is has a poor connection unless I wedge something between the two jacks to put pressure on the left on so it works. And I checked and it's not the cable. I had to open it up and change the gain switch to the lower setting. It didn't distort but Audacity showed the levels were a little high. Instructions told me the switch was there. It does come with a backup tube.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Fair for the money!
This preamp plays too loud, this flaw cause quite amount of distortion and harshness, but for 45 bucks can't ask for more. Will order a pair of Russian Valves and hope this could solve the issue.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Wow, amazing power in a tiny package!!
I just bought a vintage TT and hooked it it up to my 2000 or so HK reviewer using an old school pre-amp box and it was a disaster. I had a horrible hum even though I grounded the box. So, I was hyper vigilant about grounding the Little Bear. The sound is amazing and the output is I credibility loud, so turn down the settings before you turn it on. The sound is warm and heavy through my Boston Acoustics CR8’s. So, I’ll push off by a vintage amplifier for a few years.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

4 stars. Sound is ok. Not great.
Shipping was a fuzz slow. Packaging was good. As for Quality? Little bear t7 phono preamp was Solid. I rolled in GE 5654w tubes..it helped alot in regards to sound Quality. I was under whelmed with the sound Quality... Maybe if I Modd this out it will sound Much better.. .midrange was muddy. Not alot of detail. But if a person Doesnt have $20,000 worth of Analog preamp and Amp, Power Conditioning cabling dedicated Power lines the works. A system that is Nowhere Near as revealing. The little bear t7 would have been MUCH better. .asmit stands..4 stars is the best i can give it. .after I Modd it..I'll re-evaluate it then...Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Phono preamplifier
Product works as described. I've had people tell me my system sounds better with that Little Bear phono preamp. And I agree!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Doesn't do much
Very slight difference in tone when compared to no preamp. This item is actually more of a tube buffer with a solid state preamp than a true tube preamp. Save your money and buy the Little Bear T10 Tube preamp instead.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Excellent little amp
Does exactly as advertised. Needed a phono stage for occasional vinyl. Really shines by making your digital music sound great.

Glowing warm tones!
It sounds great! Make sure to open the front panel and flip the gain switch to Low Gain. They come set on High Gain.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Low budget, ok quality.
It was a nice compliment for my Appj EL34 (which doesn't have a phono section) and a turntable that was just kicking around. It served it's purpose at minimal cost. Could have used some kind of guard for the tubes. That's why I gave it a 3 star.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
