Thank you for the assistance. The sound is flat and not as dynamic & detailed compared to my Doge 8 LP; turning up the volume as loud as I have to, there is an audible hum that I don't hear with the LP. I was hoping this could be resolved with the phono stage settings...
Doge 8 Clarity 2021 Phono settings
Greetings fellow AudiogoN'ers! I recently purchased a used Doge 8 Clarity XLR 2021 edition to upgrade from my Doge 8 LP. The line stage is a definite improvement, however I am struggling with the phono stage. Either it has MUCH less gain than my LP, I haven't found the right settings, or it is defective. I have tried different tubes to no avail. I reached out to Doge via info@doge.audio but have yet to receive a response. My cartridge is a Soundsmith Zephyr MK III. I have a significant investment in 12AX7 tubes for the phono stage, and would prefer to get this resolved vs using an outboard phono stage. If anyone has insight on the phono settings I would certainly appreciate it.
