I am considering this phono stage for a low-output, 0.28 cartridge. It is also available with a Cinemag 1131 Blue built in, as an upgrade over the standard transformer. I believe the std built in SUT is another Cinemag, the 3440.
Thanks Andyprice44- Good to know you have plenty of gain with your .3mv cartridge. Do you think the Ares leans toward the slightly warm side, or more neutral.
What cartridge did you have running in to the A23 std. Is your observation based on comparing the Monbrison vs Ares in the same system? I appreciate and respect your opinion, but am curious about the details of this comparison. Cheers-Don
