The new Audionet PAM G2 is a massive surprise in terms of sound. In all essential single aspects of the overall sound image this phono preamplifier knows how to fully convince already without EPS and EPC. For instance, the solidity of its spatial reproduction is impressive, the style of its tonal resolution presumably no more enhanceable and the harmonic energy distribution across all octaves simply sensational. With great authority and clearance to the competition the Audionet PAM G2 takes its seat on the i-fidelity.net reference throne. This is not the first title Audionet could claim, but probably one of the most important. After all the market for phono pres is not exactly that large, and the PAM G2’s performance is far beyond what otherwise may well be called a decent result. People who are capable of treasuring the sound of records should get to know the Audionet PAM G2 bombshell!   Olaf Sturm
