Pro-Ject Debut III & Phono Box II

Bought a Pro-Ject Debut III turntable recently. Kind of a retro way to listen to music when everyone are using iPod. This turntable does not come with in-built preamp, so I had to buy the Phono Box II. From the preamp, I can connect the sound directly to a speaker or to my DAC. I still listen most of my mp3s from my laptop. So far I only bought vinyl sung by Duffy, huge fan of her voice, and I also have Parachutes by Coldplay which my sister bought. Somehow, listening to Duffy's song from vinyl sound better from mp3s.
