Hello there. I am considering to buy a second hand Linto instead of waitin more time and buy a new audio research PH5 or a Evans Microgroove plus. Can the Linto still sound in the same league? Thanks
I think if you own a Linn cartidge it would be a nice choice. If not I would look elswhere. Have a look at the new Whest phono stage if you are in the UK, it has had rave reviews and is not mega expensive.
I have heard the groove a couple of years back and did not like the sound, similar to your views - a bit in your face and trying to be overly dynamic. Could you elaborate more on the sound of the whest. I like smooth tube like sounds, does the whest approach this or is it more neutral. Would like to understand if there is any brightness as such.
