Actual teo, there is only one person who would call you out for an "appeal to authority". Showing experience with a given subject is really natural and in good taste from my viewpoint.
Counterpoint SA-7.1 phono/RIAA settings?
I have a Counterpoint SA-7.1 that I am bringing back into usage. It was owned since new (over 30 years). Asking this question as it is not a straight, stock S-7.1.
Around 25 years ago, I sent it in to Counterpoint for a rework where they may have UG'd it to a SA-1000 circuit (I don't remember but I do know the line stage was reduced to just a 6DJ8 tube). I didn't use it due to a change in life until 11 years later when I powered it up and found the amp was dead and didn't feel I needed to pay Alta Vista quite a bit to further UG it..
Earlier this year, I opened up the amp and found that there was a leaking capacitor. Replaced it and it's working. Now I want to get a new turntable (found my old LPs).
Question is, the SA-1000 has a setting for MC or MM cartridge usage. Does such an option exist on this UG'd SA-7.1?
