Which phono stages have a good matching with the Zyx universe cartridge ,either tube or S.S.
Ithink that is very important this synergy.
What about Zyx Universe with Audio Research PH7,Manley Steelhead,Zyx Artisan Phono stage,Tron phono , Raven phono ecc.Ireffered these brands because i read good information about matching.Which are your experiences as users of Zyx Universe and various phono stages you had?

I'm using a Supratek Syrah with my my Universe. I had assumed the Syrah was a weak link and I bought a Musical Fidelity KW phono for about a month and did some a/b comparisons. I found the Syrah more engaging and 'alive' although they were generally close in most areas. Anyway, I sold the MF phono. I'd love to try an expensive killer phono, but not sure if a $3k phono will be better than my Syrah.
I'm using an Artisian
and get very good results
very musical and demanding and not too hard on the wallet

have been considering moving up to a Doshi preamp
just missed a sale listing on one here on the 'gone'
it's a big step financially but I've been refining everything else
Hi

I just managed to borrow an Aesthetix IO Sig to see how it compares to the Whest PS.30RDT with my Universe (4D). Interesting really. The Whest is MUCH quieter and allows much more inner detail to come through. The IO is pretty noisy in comparison BUT if you don't compare the IO to anything else the noise levels aren't an issue. For me as well as the dealer the PS.30RDT was the clear winner on soundstage, speed, micro detail and musicality. The IO os nice without a doubt, a lot warmer for sure (if you like that) but lacked the sense that you were getting the most of your cartridge.
