Check the new ones John Chapman is putting together, complete with cool little machined cases, etc.: http://www.bentaudio.com/
Looks like great work, and the price is very right.

Adding a step-up transformer
I've got a Dynavector Karat cartridge which I like very much but it is very low output. I also own A Rogue Stealth phonostage which I have maxed out at 65db. I believe more power would add dynamics as well as the obvious volume.
I know nothing about step-up transformers (Quicksilver?) but I've been told that is a way to go. Any sonic negatives?
Also, I read in a back issue of Stereophile that a Dynavector Karat puts very difficult demands on a system but if they are matched, look out. What did they mean, specifically?
