I've owned the original Doge 8 for a while. Build quality is excellent. I cannot speak to the cartridge issue. Vic at Pacific Valve is a stand up guy and I would trust him to provide excellent service. He's very accessible and I wouldn't hesitate giving him a call. If I'm not mistaken Pacific Valve offers a free in home audition.
Doge 8 Clarity Owners-HOMC OK?
Looking for a tube preamp with phono. Currently my VPI CLASSIC/BENZ Micro feeds my Parasound P7/A52. Is the phonostage in the DOGE compatable with my cartridge? What about Doge reliability? This would be a longterm buy.Build Quality? Longterm owners,what say you?
Others being considered; used Modwright LS100,Rouge 99 Magnum +, Can the Doge be made to sound as tubey as these two 6sn7 based pre's?
