PROJECT TUBE BOX E MM/MC PHONO STAGE
The PROJECT TUBE BOX E is a valve based phono stage for Moving Magnet and Moving Coil cartridges that provides the organic warmth of valves at an affordable price, with user configurable loading and gain settings to adapt to any cartridge.
Available in silver or black.
Elegant Design Meets Practical Engineering
The Tube Box E brings classic tube warmth to your turntable setup in a sleek, miniature form. Its all-metal enclosure shields against unwanted interference, while the finely machined aluminium front panel adds a touch of sophistication. Available in silver or black, it blends seamlessly into any hi-fi system.
Pure Analogue Performance, Made Simple
Inside, a fully discrete circuit design avoids operational amplifiers (OpAmps), resulting in ultra-low noise and accurate RIAA equalisation. This means your records sound clearer and more natural, with lush mids and a relaxed tonal character. Dual mono circuitry enhances channel separation, delivering a more immersive stereo image.
Flexible Features for Vinyl Enthusiasts
Supporting both MM and MC cartridges, the Tube Box E offers front panel gain control and a subsonic filter to reduce rumble. Loading options are easily adjustable underneath, allowing precise matching to your cartridge. Replaceable ECC83 tubes invite sound-shaping through tube rolling, giving you control over your audio signature.

We try and keep on top of our pricing, but it's a mammoth task for one person. So, if you see this product offered cheaper elsewhere, or you are offered it for less elsewhere (proof will be required) and you feel like supporting an extremely independent retailer, do get in touch and we will do our very best to match or beat wherever we can. We can't promise to do so, as there may some extenuating circumstances where we just wouldn't be able to, but we'll always do what we can.
Needs to be like for like - new for new, ex-demo for ex-demo, same colour and specs etc.
