One reason that there is a focus on the LOMC is that the PE mode is a unique feature. I have quite liked it with MM carts. Though at the same time, you might be better off grabbing a phono stage that is MM only if you won't be upgrading anytime soon. Tone Audio loved the Lounge Audio phono stage which is MM only.
Entry level Phono Stage for Dynavector 10x5
Just received some gifts for the Holidays. Among them was a Dynavector 10x5. Well its blown me away. It has really just given me what I have been looking for since I stared this hobby.
Well I am thinking about grabbing a stand alone phono stage. I am using the internal one in my preamp. I am wondering if the Dynavector or the Jolinda phono stage would be a big upgrade.
I am also wondering which to go with. Obviously it makes sense to go with the Dynavector because of how much I already like the cart they produce. That being said some say the MM is really just ok. Its the MC that shines and of course I would use the MM because the 10x5 is a HOMC.
Question is what would be a better choice? Should I just keep what I have? Any thoughts from people who have used these combinations. Or am I better off just keeping what I have and do and upgrade in the future?
I am buying used and don't see upgrading the cart anytime in the near future.
