Eastern Electric minimax phono vs. Hagerman Cornet


These are the two phono preamps I'm looking at to replace my bottlehead seduction. I am aware of the basic differences between the two. Function-wise ( hagerman is mm only minimax is mm/mc) etc. But I am hoping to hear from someone who has actually heard both units. FWIW I'm using denon dl103 /variants with cinemag sut's.

I've never heard the Hagerman (I own the MiniMax)but they appear to have a similar layout and one could probably be very happy with either.

If you're planning on using a DL103 cart, the stock loading on the MC side of the MiniMax (47 ohm or 100 ohm)may not be sufficient.
