It’s one of the loveliest-sounding electronic components I’ve ever had the pleasure of reviewing. Almost miraculously, it seems to exhibit virtually no discernable electro‑mechanical artifacts. Its sound is unbelievably smooth and velvety; harmonically rich, full, and vividly textured; marvelously rounded, tactile, and dimensional, with great body and solidity; and completely natural in its musicality and freedom from any of the usual sonic hype, audiophile style. There is also an extraordinary homogeneity to the presentation...
The Absolute Sound 2012 (Paul Seydor)

All three Stereomojo reviewers agree: The Andros Phonostage, made in the USA by new company Zesto, is a remarkable achievement both in terms of absolute performance as well as artistic form and function. If you have a significant investment in vinyl and an analog front end that merits the best of the best phono preamps, you should by all means audition the Zesto Andros. At its price, its performance competes with much more expensive units. In appearance and sexiness, there’s nothing that comes close.

Superb stereo separation and imaging

Big, full, open sound on live recordings.

The Andros PS1 was very quiet. In fact, it made the solid state ASR appear to have a bad case of tube rush by comparison. Stereo separation was also quite spectacular.

The sound of the entire Catch Bull at Four LP ... was nothing short of spectacular.

Superb dynamics, holographic imagery, and ability to cleanly and clearly deliver highly complex passages without losing its composure.

I recommend the Zesto Audio PS1 without reservation.
Dagogo 2012 (Ray Seda)

The Andros PS1 has a tonal correctness that becomes more evident as the hours go by. There is a sense of flow, with notes flowing up and out of the presentation, distinctly rendered. Oboes sound like oboes, not squawky and violins sound natural, not squeaky or harsh. The soundfield produced by this phonostage is humungous and it helps to make the speakers disappear that much easier."

Comparing the Andros PS1 to a few higher priced phonostages (the ARC REF Phono 2, Pass XP-25 and Sim 810LP) and a few lower (Manley Chinook, EAR 834P and Sim 310LP) reinforce that the pricing of this unit is indeed spot on.

After a solid month of intense audition, the Zesto Andros PS1 exhibits no weaknesses whatsoever
