Discover the New Tube Box E & Tube Box S3 B – Analogue Warmth for Every Vinyl Lover

We are thrilled to announce two exciting additions to the Pro-Ject Audio Systems line-up this summer: the compact and affordable Tube Box E, and the fully balanced audiophile-grade Tube Box S3 B. These new models expand our popular Tube Box range to four distinct options, each designed to suit different listening preferences and budgets.

Tube Box E – Entry-Level Excellence

Inspired by the acclaimed Tube Box S2, the new Tube Box E offers a more accessible route into the world of tube amplification. With semi-exposed ECC83 tubes and a fully discrete circuit design, it delivers warm, analogue sound in a miniature form factor. Housed in a sturdy metal chassis and available in silver or black, it supports both MM and MC cartridges with flexible gain and loading options. This is the perfect choice for vinyl enthusiasts looking to upgrade their setup without breaking the bank.

Tube Box S3 B – Balanced Audiophile Performance

For those seeking a more refined experience, the Tube Box S3 B introduces balanced technology at an unbeatable price point. Featuring a symmetrical gain stage, balanced 5-pin mini XLR input, and balanced XLR outputs, it ensures cleaner signal transmission and reduced noise. The larger chassis accommodates improved components, while front-panel controls make cartridge matching and gain adjustment effortless. With support for two turntables and memory-stored settings, it’s a versatile solution for serious vinyl collectors.

A Complete Tube Box Line-Up

With the introduction of these two models, Pro-Ject now offers a complete Tube Box range to suit every type of listener. The long-standing Tube Box S2 continues to represent our affordable, European-made ethos. The new Tube Box S3 B steps into audiophile territory with balanced design and premium features. And for those seeking the ultimate in high-end performance, the Tube Box DS3 B remains our flagship offering.
