Good to hear others have experienced bliss from this over achiever. I use the TAD-150 strictly as a line stage. I use a Jolida JD9 for my low output MC phono, I tried the phono in the TAD once and it wasn't very good. Maybe it would suit a MM better...
I put an Antique Sound Labs Flora (decked out with Mundorf caps and the new power supply) in my rig for a while and couldn't believe how sterile the sound stage was in comparison to the TAD-150.
Curious to hear which 12AX7 style of tubes people are running also, my favorite has to be Raytheon black plate 12AX7. Although JAN GE 5751 and Amperex ECC83 are a close second...
