Six Moons Review of Pro-Ject Tube Box SE
"It is so well balanced, musical and involving that I wasn't conscious of any shortcomings at all during relaxed, non-critical listening. I think this is the key to designing affordable gear: Don't go for extremes, just offer balance across the frequency range, focus on getting the midrange right and most of all, zero in on delivering the musical message."
