Its innovative external power supply minimizes electrical noise, while passive RIAA circuitry delivers ultra-low distortion and transparent sound. Compact and versatile, it integrates seamlessly into premium analog and digital audio systems. ## Description Developed by Pathos engineers, In The Groove is a very successful phono pre-amplifier, already well known on the market and that has been entirely redesigned now. It features high quality integrated circuits, fitting with flexibility to any kind of phono detector. Specifications: Frequency response: RIAA ± 0,2dB THD 0,04% @1VRMS , 1KHz GAIN selectable in 4 positions 62dB, 56dB, 50dB, 43dB Input impedance: selectable in 6 settings of resistance and 6 settings of capacitance Max output level: Unbalanced 5,5VRMS Balanced 5,5+5,5VRMS Analog output: 1 stereo unbalanced RCA Output impedance: Unbalanced 75 Ohm Balanced 40 Ohm Power consumption: 10 W max <0,5W standby mode DIMENSION: Preamplifier: 260mm (D) x 200mm (W) x 70mm (H) Power supply: 230mm (D) x 60mm (W) x 70mm (H) Weight: Net Preamplifier 2,3 Kg Net Power supply: 1.2 Kg It is an analog solid state product, featuring passive RIAA preamplification made up by two chassis, equipped with multi-tension linear power supply and three settings: impedance and capacity can be set by the front panel, while sensitivity by the rear panel.These settings allow finding out the perfect match to get best performance and make the most of your audio system. A final tune of the sound can be gained from analog source, according to your own musical taste and by changing impedance load value. ## Features - In The Groove is a very successful phono pre-amplifier, already well known on the market and that has been entirely redesigned now. - high quality integrated circuits, fitting with flexibility to any kind of phono detector. - The engineers have tackled the noise issues by moving the power supply – invariably the most problematic part of the circuitry when it comes to electrical interference – outboard - Power Supply is connected to the main unit by a fixed umbilical. Inside the main unit, the RIAA circuitry is completely passive in a bid to keep noise levels low and improve transparency - If combined with Pathos Converto EVO and AmpliD, will set up a perfect audio system both for digital and phono source ## Images ![Pathos In The Groove MK2 Phono Pre-Amplifier - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31R-pHwgcgL.jpg) ![Pathos In The Groove MK2 Phono Pre-Amplifier - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51sHSx+SlPL.jpg) ![Pathos In The Groove MK2 Phono Pre-Amplifier - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61j3Hbn1JeL.jpg) ![Pathos In The Groove MK2 Phono Pre-Amplifier - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/513-XP0oz3L.jpg) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/55355859-pathos-in-the-groove-mk2-phono-pre-amplifier](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/55355859-pathos-in-the-groove-mk2-phono-pre-amplifier) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
