OPERA CONSONANCE PM8 MM/MC Phono Preamplifier I bought this phono preamp from stereonet couple years back. The previous owner have done a great job to summarise this product so I just borrowed few from his previous post. "Two box" phono preamp with separate power supply. Remarkably good sounding unit for the price with adjustments for loading / gain for MC cartridges. Very quiet preamp with no discernable hum with volume down. Ask Dr Google will give you plenty information about this phono preamp and how it compare to other preamp. The reason for selling is that I have accumulated too man

Opera-Consonance, also marketed as Opera Audio, is a Chinese hi-fi brand founded in 1994 in Beijing by Shi Hui Liu, who is also identified as the company’s chief designer and owner. It is one of the earlier international high-end audio manufacturers to emerge from China, and the brand has long emphasized original design and in-house manufacturing.
Its product range is broad and centered on traditional audiophile components: amplifiers, preamps, CD players and DACs, turntables, loudspeakers, and related accessories. The brand has been especially visible in analogue and tube-oriented gear, including turntable systems and valve amplification, alongside digital source components and speaker designs.
In the market, Opera-Consonance sits in the high-end but still boutique tier rather than the ultra-luxury mainstream. It is better known among experienced audiophiles than casual buyers, with a reputation for ambitious industrial design, careful fit and finish, and strong value relative to more established Western rivals. In the U.S. and other Western markets, it remains a niche brand with a cult following rather than a household name.
